    Amazing pistachio croissant
    Larisa M.

    I recently tried this French restaurant and it was amazing! The food was delicious and authentic, the service was impeccable, and the ambiance was very charming. I highly recommend trying their delicious dishes. Bon appétit!

    The food and service here is impeccable. The onion soup and braised short rib were amazing. The short rib was on the bone and melting off!

    The dinner was good, but the atmosphere was the best thing. I would rate this place third on the list of places I ate during my 5 day trip in CDMX. For an appetizer I got a cheese plate. There were four cheese provided as well as some fruit. The serving of cheese was large, a bit much for an appetizer for just two people. For dinner I got the fish of the day. The waiter spoke good enough English to clearly explain the dish when I asked about it. The fish was served with a jalapeño sauce and rice. It was cooked perfectly. We got a sidewalk table. Even though the restaurant was busy we got a four top table so we could both sit facing the street. The staff did not rush me and I enjoyed a leisurely evening on this patio.

    Gorgeous tables with view of the park across the street

    Great atmosphere right by the park - secure and outside table and take a little leisure in your day. There's a handful of French inspired egg dishes on the menu, as well as Mexican staples. Eggs Napoleon were particularly good. Decor is French bistro. I believe there's an upstairs we didn't see, but the tables outside across the park are delightful. There's also a small cafe/bar area for when things get crowded or you just want a quicker bite. On a separate note.. Honestly feels like half the reviews are fake: someone calling this a "nice American place" when it's actually Mexican/French, another person complaining of the small menu when the menu is actually a full, small font page (perhaps they just saw the bar/cafe menu?).

    The service is absolutely terrible! Do not come here! Go elsewhere. Tons of other places nearby that we discovered after we left. It took about 45 min to get someone to look our direction to get our food order in. My friends coffees came, and my water never came. Waited another eternity for the food to arrive. My friend's eggs Benedict has EGG SHELLS in it! My pastrami sandwich was less than mediocre and the meat was slimy and my salad has so much salt on it, I finished the little water I had left from my hotel. Ambiance was great though...that's about it.

    Mussels & Escargot
    Amaris C.

    Came here for lunch on a Saturday with my kids. This place is a cute little French restaurant located across from a park. We sat right next to a open window overlooking the park. It was a nice romantic experience. We ordered Escargot & Mussels for appetizers they were delicious. For lunch we ordered the Burger and the brisket it was ok nothing out of this world. Not many food options for kids except for only pasta. Overall this cute little restaurant located in Polanco I would recommend anyone to at least come here once and experience the food for yourself.

    Beautiful setting!!!!!

    Extremely romantic and quiet restaurant, at least the upstairs was! Downstairs was packed with lots of people enjoying their food and drinks and smoking! The food was delicious. Crab cakes were just the right amount of food. The steak and fries were a solid order for my husband. Cheese plate was delicious!!!! The decor was beautiful!!! Lovely French food in the middle of Mexico City!!!

    I had the privilege to live in the heart of Paris for nearly a year, and during that time I ate at…read more"Au Pied de Cochon" ("the foot of the pig") as often as I could afford it. It is a beautiful old restaurant which looks far more elegant and stuffy than it really is. "Au Pied de Cochon" offers a traditional old style French Restaurant Menu, most famous for serving the 19th century favorite of a crispy meaty deep fried Pigs Foot (or Trotter as it's called in Britain). I had this dish only once, and it was delicious (although a bit dryer than a braised pig's foot in gravy, which I prefer). But during each visit here I tried to order something new and different. Once when I was taken out here we ordered the 'Grand Seafood Tower', which consisted of nearly an 'All-Raw' 3 story high platter of fresh seafood. There were Oysters, Clams, chilled steamed Mussels & Shrimp, Sea-Snails, small steamed Periwinkle Snails, and both a cold cooked Crab and a half of a chilled cooked North Atlantic Lobster. On another occasion I ordered the large Alsacian Choucroute for two (it is basically a mountain of sauerkraut piled high with sausages, cured meats, and liver dumplings): YUM! And another time I had blood-rare steak (blue) coated in green peppercorn sauce. I had other delicious meals here as well, but these three really stood out. The best thing about eating here was just being here. The service was impeccable, the decor was like stepping back in time, and all of the meals I ordered came to the table slowly as a multi-course feast, with Escargot to start, followed by Pate or a rich Bisques, then the mains - and finally a cheese plate followed by desert & coffee. Plus there was alcohol served constantly, from Pernod or Campari as my aperitif, followed by many bottles of wine, and ending with a cognac or a sweet liqueur. So as you can imagine, I either had to be taken here by someone else, or I had to save up for two months to come here. But EVERY PENNY SPENT and EVERY CALORIE CONSUMED was Well Worth It.

    My family came here for dinner in August 2026. Most of the meal was very good; however, the duck…read moreconfit portions were small and somewhat dry. The profiteroles were burned, and the dessert souffle was pretty deflated and watery on the bottom. We used to live part-time in France, and rarely encountered these issues there.

We knew immediately we weren't the only ones with that idea. The place was busy, with a line of people putting their names down for a table. It definitely has that destination-restaurant energy. Once we were seated, we ordered several things to share. We tried a mix of fried bites, including croquetas, shrimp, and stuffed squash blossoms. The croquetas were crisp and rich, and the squash blossoms were one of the more interesting things on the table. We also ordered pizza. The crust had a nice char and chew, and the toppings were generous. I enjoyed it, although a couple of my coworkers were a little less enthusiastic. For me, the smaller plates stood out more. The room was lively, and the mix of vintage plates, copper-toned tables, and simple details gave the space a lot of personality. I also liked how naturally the menu lent itself to passing plates around and trying a little of everything. I'm glad we checked it out, especially because Lardo comes up often when people talk about eating in Mexico City. I'd happily come back and explore more of the smaller plates.

    One of my best meals in the city. Many thanks to talented young chef Diego Nino and Cesar Vazquez…read more Highly recommended by a local friend as his favorite restaurant in Mexico City, Nexo Wine Bitrot offers great wine selection (overseas and Mexican), very good modern cuisine (infused with Japanese elements, local ingredients, French elements), classy dining ambiance (high wooden tables, open kitchen, and big window walls), and very good service (both chefs came out to check on me and gave me a complimentary dessert). Reservation is relatively easy to make compared to other good fine dining restaurants in the city. Without hesitation, I choose the 5 course tasting menu (~770 peso). Complimentary fried chips with Mexican dipping sauce (savory sauce made with non-spicy chili): crispy chips and savory aromatic sauce. Then comes the first dish: crudo of the day, avocado with umeboshi, yuzukosho and garlic oil. Fresh and sweet fish, creamy avocado sauce and a refreshing note from umeboshi and yuzukosho, and lastly ends with aromatic note of garlic. Well done! Second dish is squid alla carbnonara. Excellent dish! Again fresh and sweet squid, nicely cooked so that the meat is tender. Rich bacon and creamy cheese adding the thickness in flavor and texture, and lastly a nice kick from black pepper. Artichoke heart with squash sauce and green mojo. Excellent. Very tender, meaty, and sweet artichoke with sweet squash sauce, and refreshing green mojo. Main dish: rib eye, truffled potato purée, and bok choy. excellent. The rib eye literally melts in my mouth! The truffled potato puree is very nicely done. Overall love the well balanced profile and the amzing fatty rib eye. Desert-- dry strawberry and cereals on top of almond ice cream (?) not overwhelmingly sweet. love the fine and creamy texture of the ice cream. And the wonderful meal didn't end! Chef came out to greet me and gave me a complimentary dessert--last comes the best--passion fruit tart decorated with beautiful flowers. Very very delicious. Not overly sweet or sour, it captures the refreshing taste of passionfruit. This dish, with bright colors, passionate flavor, and beautiful presentation, is a perfect one to end my day after visiting Frida's museum. Overall, highly recommend!
