My friends and I went to La Cueva for some cocktails and dinner. This is a cocktail bar with no restaurant-style seating. So we filled up on small plates of ceviche, tostadas de atun, and guacamole (with chapulines on the side for the skurd Americanos). I'm not a huge fan of chapulines (grasshoppers) but La Cueva makes the best I've tasted to date! They must be seasoned in soy sauce or Maggi's.... delicioso! We had three craft cocktails (really, four, because one specific drink was BOGO), three apps; and our bill was $50. Well worth the food/drink/service/atmosphere and experience.

We started with raw oysters, a crab tostada, fired calamari, and grilled oysters. The grilled oysters were amazing. We did the parsley and butter and almost ordered another round of the tabasco. We are normally not entree people but these were perfect. The grilled fish with avocado and herb salad is fresh, light, and so much flavor. I will try to recreate this at home. The grilled octopus was cooked perfectly. Nothing fancy just perfect octopus. And lastly the grilled vegetables . The herb smooth sauce they are served on top of and all the variety of vegetables, they are what all grilled vegetables are supposed to be. My girl dinner would be the vegetables and grilled oysters.

This place hit the spot after a long day of walking around Mexico City. We came in for lunch…read moreabsolutely exhausted and left happy, refreshed, and very well fed. The tacos were incredibly fresh and flavorful. We tried the jalapeño-stuffed tuna, smoked marlin, and a tuna-shrimp combo--each one was excellent and cooked perfectly. But the real star is the self-serve toppings bar. The variety of toppings, salsas, and fresh house-made sauces takes the tacos to a whole different level and lets you customize every bite exactly how you want it. Paired everything with cold Coronas and Topo Chicos, and it was such a satisfying, no-frills but high-quality meal. Generous portions, great flavors, quick service and absolutely worth the price. If you're in Mexico City and craving amazing fish tacos, El Pescadito is a must. We'd go back in a heartbeat.

The cocktails were ridiculously creative (including ingredients like soursop juice, eucalyptus, charred pineapple, worm salt, basil, cucumber etc--obviously not all in the same cocktail), and served in dramatic glasses with fun garnishes. In terms of food, we were four people and we shared four starters (yellow-fin ceviche, kampacho and blue fin sashimi (which they call laminadas), and a shrimp "envelope"--each one was remarkable, and served with flavorful sauces that complimented the dish. Our mains were also good, though not as spectacular--they offer Catch of the Day (mahi mahi today) prepared in three different styles. The plain one (pan seared with shallot butter) was nothing special, but the option served over spinach with a cream sauce was incredible. The grilled shrimp main was also excellent as was the chocolaty dessert. Overall a delightful meal with excellent service and cocktails!

I was a little worried about how the food would turn out given the location (there's a California…read morePizza Kitchen across the street). Turns out everything we had was really fresh and delicious. Personal favorites were the Camarones al Ajillo, the Pulpo, the Yellowfin ceviche, the Mahi-mahi, and the suckling pig. Which was basically most of what we ordered... Taking off a star because there were a few options on the menu that weren't available, which was a little disappointing. And despite how delicious everything was, it was all fairly simple and traditional, without much wow factor to account for the higher prices. The service was fantastic as well, however, so this is a definite recommend!

For breakfast I ordered scrambled eggs with little pieces of ribeye beef on top., accompanied by little black refrigerator beans. It was all very good. There was attention to every detail here.

On our last night he said we are going to a fabulous authentic Mexican restaurant. A 2 minute walk from the hotel brought us to Las Mercedes. The service is impeccable and the menu is diverse an authentic drawing from different regions of Mexico. Our waiter spent a considerable amount of time with us describing the dishes of interest to us. I finally said pork and spicy please. Our appetizers included beef and veggie tacos. My dining companion had the blackened red snapper and I had the shredded pork cooked in banana leaves homemade corn tortillas accompanied my dish. To be honest I could have ordered a dozen more menu offerings as each looked fabulous. If you are in the area this is a must for dinner or even brunch. 6 Yelp Stars!

We were seated almost immediately and our server was attentive from the start, which was a pleasant surprise considering how busy it was. I ordered the small pozole, and it was exactly what I needed. It was flavorful, comforting, and the small portion was actually the perfect size for a late-night meal. My honey ordered the chilaquiles, and unfortunately they didn't quite live up to expectations. He was hoping for bolder flavors and a little more spice, but found them a bit bland. Overall, it was a good experience thanks to the quick service and satisfying pozole. I'd happily come back for the pozole, but I'd probably try something different than the chilaquiles next time.
