Came here during rush hour, wait was about 25 mins, we roamed around the neighborhood before grabbing a table inside. We had kids including an infant, they were very accommodating getting us a good spot(Staff is super nice and courteous). Decor is super and the staff in the back have a live bakery where they make fresh goods. We had breakfast which we really liked including our coffees, we wrecked not a big fan on pancake as it has coconut flavor and the guava pastry was the star of the show. Good spot to grab coffee/pastry or for a sit down meal.

It took a little bit of searching bit I eventually located this restaurant. Neither the location…read moreor operating hours are the most accurate online. I did arrive a little bit early and I think that they had opened-up just minutes earlier. One of the things that I wanted to order, tacos de pastor, were not ready yet. Not a big deal. Instead I settled on two tacos de pollo milenesa. I wasn't sure how spicey their salsa really was, so I skipped on the salsa altogether. I actually eat a lot of tacos without salsa and they taste just as good to me. The ambiance was up-to-date and the restaurant was nice and clean. The tacos de pollo milenesa were just what the doctor ordered!

Also the guy working the counter didn't speak very good English but we got along great and figured it all out. I ordered: Avo toast (delicious) Vegan sandwich (light and satisfying the steamed broccoli is a nice touch) Digestive tea (good) Chocolate cinnamon roll (tasty but a bit hard) Bought the small bag of Chile sticks (not sure the actual name) for my travels regretted not buying the big bag, they were freaking delicious!!! The only qualm I had was that the bread was a little to soft so it didn't hold well. It started to melt under the avocado in my avocado toast and the hummus in my vegan sandwich. I suggest they toast it a tad! I still highly recommend this place. Didn't get to try the smoothies because they were out would love to try on my next visit.

The location has plenty of seating inside and outside. No restrooms I think (but a sink for you to wash your hands). The food was great! The tacos are so good! Well flavored! They are known for their pink tortillas too. Another stand out was surprisingly the kombucha. No idea if they brew it themselves, but it was great! Lastly, staff was very attentive and nice. He made sure we were enjoying our time and was really funny.

After reading all the reviews and seeing all the instagram reels with the pink tortillas, we had to…read moretry it. Incredibly disappointing from start to finish. Ordered a michelada, and it came warm, seriously a lukewarm beer. The server pulled the bottle and poured it from their non refrigerated inventory. The service was something else, and not it the best of ways. Literally had to ask for everything while they stood there looking at you, with eyes glazed over. Whoever is training the staff there needs to either supervise or take a course in hospitality. Need a question answered? Not happening. Have an allergy question? Good luck with that. Didn't eat something after one spoonful because it was the blandest food in Mexico City? You're still paying for it even though they took it away. And to be perfectly honest, vegans have it rough when traveling, but not in cdmx thankfully. This was the blandest, most overpriced lukewarm food we ate in the city. The pink tortillas for the socials wear off pretty fast once you take a bit of barely heated mush in a slightly less warm sauce. Save your pesos and go to any other option. The service and the food is not worth the hype or the photos.

As someone who always struggles with trying to figure out what the "right" thing to order is, I absolutely loved not having to worry about this and rather sitting back and enjoying the vibes/ talking to strangers while awaiting "surprise" dishes. They were also able to cater to my vegan diet with every dish being so unique and tasty. We came by twice and between the two visits every dish we had was different. This was overall probably the most fun and tasty meal we had in Mexico City Some tips: - the restaurant is cash only so make sure to bring cash - there's no reservations so make sure to come early because lines are common. We got lucky in that we stopped by on weekdays when it was less busy

If you're planning to eat at Expendio de Maíz, be prepared to wait--but trust me, it's worth it…read more We waited about an hour and a half to be seated. Thankfully, our Airbnb was just around the corner, and there's a brewery nearby where we were able to grab a drink while we waited. We ended up being part of the last seating of the day and were seated family-style with other guests, including people from Australia and Toronto. I actually loved that part of the experience. It made dinner feel communal, and it was fun meeting new people over an incredible meal. I ordered the Jamaica mezcal cocktail, and it was delicious--refreshing with just the right amount of smokiness. I honestly can't remember the names of all the dishes because everything is served as a tasting experience, but I do remember that every single course was fantastic. The food speaks for itself. The music, the atmosphere, and the overall vibe made the entire experience feel special. If you're visiting Mexico City, this is absolutely a place I'd recommend adding to your list.

Back in March, my coworkers and I had heard enough good things about Lardo that we wanted to see…read morewhat the hype was about for ourselves. 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.

We tried a few juices, the chicken tomato salad and the salmon tacos. The salad was huge with a big portion of chicken, avocado and many toppings for a reasonable price. The tacos were smaller but flavorful. Taking off a star because my salad arrived almost 15 minutes before my boyfriend's tacos arrived and the restaurant was pretty empty. The lights were out in the bathroom and in part of the restaurant, so not sure if they were dealing with a partial power outage and impact to the kitchen. Still recommend for the food!

Ojo de Agua was hands down one of our favorite food finds in Mexico City. Even though they have…read moreseveral locations across CDMX, we stumbled upon one just a short walk from our hotel--and the fact that they were open on Christmas Day already earned bonus points. What really says it all? We loved it so much, we went back the very next day. This was the only restaurant we repeated during our week-long stay, which should tell you everything. The menu is extensive and thoughtfully curated--fresh, flavorful, and something for everyone. We tried the croissant sandwich, salmon deli nut sandwich, chutney mango deli sandwich, santos ahogados, fig chipotle deli sandwich, pear honey deli sandwich, and the spicy tuna deli sandwich. The sandwiches came with a standard simple salad. Every single item was delicious, well-balanced, and satisfying in that "clean but filling" way. The tables had two delicious spicy chili oil like condiments which elevated each of these dishes. And the juices--WOW. So refreshing, vibrant, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The perfect complement to the food and ideal for starting (or resetting) your day. If you're visiting Mexico City, Ojo de Agua is an absolute must. With such a wide menu, you're guaranteed to find something you'll love--and very likely come back for more. Highly recommend!

I can't overstate how much we loved this place! I went to Mexico City with my vegan husband…read morerecently and was so pleasantly surprised with just how many vegan options there were within the city. I am not vegan, so I normally search for a place that has both but this place was so close to our hotel, it was hard to resist. Genuinely- I was blown away, even as an omnivore. Everything was really affordable and quick and I managed to snap a pic of the tacos I ordered, even though my husband devoured his torta before I could document it. We came back for lunch the next day. It's relatively small, but there is seating inside and outside and it is pretty fast, so spots open up quick. If you are vegan or with a vegan- don't miss out on this spot!

We tried the vegan milanesa, al pastor, and suadero tacos, which come with onion and cilantro; and guacamole with chips. When we first arrived we were seated right away. The food came out fairly decently, but all at different times. There is some indoor and outdoor seating, but neither space is very big. The service was a little mixed; one waitress seemed to initially have a negative attitude, but then later was fine; the other waitress who helped us was more friendly; I'll chalk it up to the fact that it was a Sunday night one hour before closing. The food itself tasted good, but nothing out of this world. This place has a punk rock vibe. Overall, I would potentially come back.
