So many pastries and breads to choose from! We of course had to try the famous guava roll which is croissant-like that also had cheese custard. The cute little pig like cookie was cute.

We didn't dine in since it was hard to find seats for our group, so we just stop by to grab to-go. If you want some their popular items, make sure to come during the day time since it will run out. We came here a few times to try different baked goods: - Guava roll (5/5) - Butter croissant and honey croissant (4/5) - Tres leches cake (5/5) - Concha (3/5) - Mil hojas de frutos rojos/mixed berries napoleon (4/5)   The most popular item was their guava roll and it lived up to its expectations. The guava jam was sweet but not too overwhelming. The roll itself had a similar taste to a croissant. It was soft and flaky. They nailed the texture. We ordered a slice of the tres leches and napoleon. Tres leches was moist and the napoleon also was delish. Everything was well priced and a decent size for the price. The concha was also good, not too dry. They have an outdoor patio with shades. The menu also offer a variety of coffee drinks although we didn't try it this time. Overall, a great stop for a sweet treat.

One of my favorite meals while in CDMX. We had reservation and asked to be seated in their patio…read morearea because it was such a nice day. The patio was covered with so many greenery and provided a lot of shades. We ordered a few items to share: - Toasted bread, chicken liver, and black truffle: a good appetizer to start off with. The chicken pate was good, a bit different from what I'm used to. - Pappardelle with pork ragu: this was super good. Love the pasta texture on this. Pork ragu sauce was also perfect. - Robalo ceviche, watermelon, Serrano pepper: a refreshing ceviche to balance out the meal. the watermelon added a bit of sweetness. - Pizza capocollo, radicchio, straquinella cheese: a good size pizza to share. I like thin crust. - Arugula, roasted tomatoes, Parmesan salad: fresh arugula that went perfectly with the roasted tomatoes. Every meal needs a good salad. - Ricotta stuffed zucchini blossoms: this was my favorite dish we tried. Such a unique combo of flavors. The ricotta cheese just melted when you bite into the zuchinni blossoms. It also had a light crispy texture. - Hummus and pita bread: another good choice for appetizer. The hummus was solid. The service was excellent. Everyone was attentive and our food didn't take long to come out. Would highly recommend to add this place to your list. This is also a great area to check out, plenty of things to do in La Condesa.

The interior was brightly lit with a large beautiful bar, and had the vibe of a French cafe. We were brought out some complimentary (pita-like) bread, which was nice, but would have been better with something like olive oil to dip it in. My friend and I ordered 3 items to share - the Ricotta Stuffed Squash Blossoms, Eggplant Parmesan, and Barbacoa. Portions were on the smaller side, but this was the perfect food quantity for us. The Ricotta Stuffed Squash Blossoms were fine but a little bland. I liked the Eggplant Parmesan and Barbacoa, but neither really blew my mind. For everything I'd heard about Lardo, I felt like our experience was good but not amazing. Would check it out for breakfast to compare!

The original location looks a lot prettier and bigger. Luckily we were able to get a seat alongside of the bar, but it was relatively packed. The guava pastry was so delicious! I usually don't like fillings in my pastries, but this was the perfect amount. The pastry itself was very flakey and buttery. Nothing to write home about the mocha, however. I definitely would want to check out the main location, but this location had some cute shops nearby to check out as well!

Started with a mimosa and the chia pudding. The fruit was super fresh and the bowl was surprisingly filling. Then I ordered the avocado toast with a side of bacon. The avocado was obviously fresh, but I wish it had a little more seasoning, and the brown sauce wasn't really my favorite. The bacon though? Cooked perfectly. The guava pastry was DELICIOUS! so good I had to grab another one to go. Service was good too, they move pretty quickly for such a busy spot. The ambience is really nice, with a mix of indoor and outdoor seating that gives rustic treehouse vibes. Overall, a really solid brunch spot with fresh ingredients, great pastries, and a beautiful atmosphere.

I visited Masala Y Maiz on a Monday night with a party of four. We struggled to get reservations…read moreover a two week period but we were able to get one at 5:15. The restaurant supposedly closes at 6 PM. We arrived, and I immediately felt very rushed to order. All the wines on the menu are priced by the bottle and by the glass I tried to order a glass of wine and I was told that they didn't have that bottle open so I could not get it. This is a Michelin star restaurant....... I was brought two other options that they had open to choose from and never provide provided prices.. I chose one of the two but did not like it. When the table was ready to order a bottle of wine, I wanted the original bottle that I had chosen but unfortunately, was brought the wrong bottle. Again something that shouldn't happen at a Michelin star restaurant. The food was OK, people rave about the samosas, but they tasted very overcooked to me. This was the third Michelin star restaurant I visited in Mexico City and by far the least impressive. The flavors of the food did have a lot of depth, but by no means were they exceptional in any way. I was not able to take pictures of the food because it was so dark in the restaurant where we were seated and I did not want to use the flash on my camera. Will not return.
