While the concert hall is modern, intimate, with okay acoustics, I was a little disappointed in the…read morecrowd that attended the symphony showing I went to (talking, taking flash photos - definitely not your standard feel) While that is not at all the venue or symphony's fault (maybe security's fault?), the music was great.. for what it is (100 pesos / ticket). As someone who is classically trained in music and previously played in a philharmonic and symphony, the repertoire the symphony picked was NOT easy peasy lemon squeezy. That said, I feel grateful to have been able to attend and see the caliber of playing here in Mexico. There is parking that you can pay for next to the hall, but I recommend leaving slightly before everyone else does to avoid the traffic.

Very very packed on a weekend night, but somehow we were able to walk up and snag a spot after…read morewaiting for 10 minutes. We were originally placed in an awkward standing spot (which we were totally ok with) since it was a first come, first serve situation, however shortly after being placed there, a small table next to us got up and the lady told us we could sit there! I found that to be really nice considering usually they just stick you where you are placed. Cocktails were pretty good here too and I liked the vibe a lot from this place. Being right next to the Parque Rio de Janeiro is a treat. Beautiful area and places to see.

Si pudiera darle cero estrellas, lo haría. Normalmente no soy el tipo de persona que deja reseñas,…read morepero esta experiencia fue completamente inaceptable. Pagamos nuestras bebidas y, cuando me fui, una empleada me persiguió por toda una calle para preguntarme si iba a dejar propina. Entiendo que las propinas se agradecen, pero si no me gustó la bebida, no voy a dejar una gran propina. Aun así, después de que me alcanzó, le ofrecí dejarle una propina, y todavía tuvo el descaro de sonreír con sarcasmo y decir: "No, gracias". Entonces, ¿para qué perseguirme? Definitivamente no lo recomiendo. Además del mal servicio, las bebidas estaban aguadas. If I could give this zero I would, I'm never the kind of person to leave a review BUT we paid for our drinks and when I left I was chased down a whole street asking if I was going to leave a tip? I know a tip is appreciated but If I didn't like a drink I'm not going to leave a fat tip, once I offered to leave a tip once I was chased down the street she still had the nerve to smirk and say no thanks? So what was the point of chasing me down ?? Do not recommend at all, the drinks are watered down.

We ordered: - Molletes.- there quite good. - Huevos motuleños.- good but the peas were undercooked. - Chilaquiles.- ok. The place is very nice so you should come during the day to appreciate it and the breakfast was good and there are many options.

This is a colorful, diverse market in a nice neighborhood. I absolutely love browsing crafts and…read morerandom atypical souvenirs while traveling and this is the perfect spot to do so. There is also a little bar serving food and drinks. There are several shops within the market on two levels. There are also vendors selling items outside on the first floor. The prices vary, but most of the stuff upstairs seemed more high-end. The owner was very friendly and welcomed me and asked me how I found out about the market. I told him an Instagram travel influencer made it look like a cool place to stop in, and she was right!

There is a cool cafeteria run by couple of chilean guys but so far they are not very good taking several orders and delivering to the terrace upstairs. The highlight of my visit was a band that played covers during the Saturday evening that I was there. This is a place to have a look, grab a coffee, listen to some music and get out. Savvy shoppers should not spend money there.
