I liked the nuevos arevueoos, which is basically scrbled eggs, and it includes a side of pasta and tortillas. I also ordered a side of the fruit dish which had all different types of fruits. I took that to go because the eggs and pasta were enough for me. I noticed that they have various types of chicken platters, and perhaps I will return for lunch sometime. The I side of the restaurant was a little bit modern, and all of the wait staff were dressed professionally. It was I retesting to see how busy they were just a day before Christmas.

I chose the chilaquiles sencillos, it's a smaller sized portion with a side of black beans. I thought the sauce had good flavor. You also get some bread to dip in the excess sauce. I also got a limonada, which was standard. Overall, I would recommend this place if in the area.

It was still their breakfast menu so we got mole enchiladas and some sort of enmolados with salsa verde. I preferred the latter, but it didn't have as much chicken on it as I'd like. I'd come back just for the sweet bread.

However, the food and service are at the top of their game. I ordered regular tacos de barriga which can almost be considered barbeque. They tasted the same as barbeque. The restaurant is busy but there wasn't any sort of wait to be seated. They actually have a person who seats customers. Again, this is usually not the case in Mexico City. I have not visited any other restaurants under the same name, and I'm sure there is very little difference between any of them. This location is somewhat further away from the central parte of the city, so I can imagine it is probably less busy here.

Another thing this city has is very inexpensive spots you can eat,like pop ups or stands that serve such high quality food at very cheap prices. The third thing I found about this city is where this restaurant fits in-They have restaurants that are historic,that opened over 100 years ago-Cafe de Tacuba fits in that category,having opened in 1912. This restaurant is located in Centro Historico-just a few blocks from Zocalo.Its location is a very busy touristy part of Mexico City. When we arrived there was a 30 minute wait,but once we walked in it was obvious why as it was truly a work of art in there. The walls were adorned with amazing paintings and murals and interior designs elements that transported you back to Mexico in the 1950s and earlier. It was gorgeous. I don't want to call it a fancy place with all the stigma that sometimes represents but it was a fancy place without all the stuffiness of a fancy place. It was a very warm and welcoming place to dine at. There was a lady walking around with a platter full of conchas and churros that one could indulge in while waiting their main meal. I had to get a churro-it was so delicious. We also got chicken tortilla soup-it was so rich and tasty with the perfect blend of Mexican seasonings. I had a pretty good cafe con leche as well-you could really taste the high quality coffee beans they use in their coffees compared to what I'd been getting all trip in the streets. Now when you visit this restaurant and you could only try one dish-that dish begins and ends with Enchiladas Tacuba(355 pesos/$20.35) That's what I got and it was awesome.Its basically a chicken enchilada dish with a creamy spinach based sauce topped with cheese-flavor bomb to the fullest. 9.5/10 Item I wouldn't clarify this as an inexpensive meal compared to other places we visited in Mexico City,but I would call this place an incredible dining experience where one can just feel the importance of the building one is having this meal. Heck Diego Rivera had his wedding reception here in 1922. I for sure would recommend anyone who has the pleasure of visiting Mexico City,must add Cafe de Tacuba to their itinerary-it's such a rich experience.
