    Good food, cold beer This restaurant was recommended by our apartment host and it was a really good option after a long day walking around Mexico City. The beer was cold and the food was excellent. We did think that the portions were a little small and a little pricey by Mexican standards.

    Spectacular margarita, amazing outdoor vibe, quick attentiveness. I highly recommend to everyone who loves margaritas and is looking for a "real/true" margarita.

    We ventured here prior to our Day of the Dead festivities as it was only a few blocks away from the parade. For nearly our entire trip to CDMX, we were plagued by rain, but on this morning, the rain was holding off so we opted to sit in the Backyard's lovely outdoor space. It has great plant content, by the way! Since it was mid-morning, we stuck to brunch. I ordered a breakfast burger, delicious! The slabs of sliced meat were hearty! The most exciting part of my meal was my pumpkin spice latte. Please see my image for reference. They served it in a tiny pumpkin. I'm easily delighted, but this takes the cake. So adorable and even more than that, super warm and comforting. The staff was lovely and we ended our meal just as it began to rain, so perfect timing.

    Wow. My friend recommended this place to me as a lunch spot close to our workspace. I saw that it was open before 1pm (kind of a rarity here as most lunch places only open at 1pm), so decided to check it out. The staff were very friendly and let me know that lunch was not being served yet, but that they were still doing breakfast. I got the chilaquiles and they came with brisket. Usually I'm kind of wary about ordering items with brisket, but this came out and it didn't look fatty at all. The brisket had a delicious smokiness and was actually the exact flavor I have been missing from my Midwest BBQ. The whole meal was VERY filling. Normally I need an afternoon snack, but this satisfied me until a 7pm dinner. Tip: They have wifi! The outside looks cute, but isn't open until lunch.

    SOLID barbque! I was quite surprised. The ribs are good and the brisket is solid. I'm a TEXAN and was quite impressed. Roma norte, CDMX, Condesa area it's worth the walk. Excellent selections and AMAZING staff. OH, they make a lot of drinks that aren't on the menu, just ask. Brush up on conversational spanish! Comida para llevar por favor.

    Mocha with a touch of cinnamon

    Their mocha is superb. Its flavor profile has just the right mix of espresso, chocolate, cinnamon, cream, and sweetness. Definitely more cinnamon than you'll find in your average mocha, and quite unique in that regard. Other highlights include the back patio, the hip decor, the opportunity to enjoy hookah, and the friendly staff.

    The brisket is very tasty! And don't pass up the green salad. Yum!

    Great seating inside or out. Every dish was prepared from scratch down to the homemade mustard. When we walked in they were preparing noodles by hand for the chicken noodle soup. We didn't order it this time around but will def try on our next visit. The brisket was a taste of home (TX) and truly hit the spot. The service was excellent and the bottle of house wine was delish. Thank you to the staff at the Backyard for an excellent experience in every facet of dining out. We will be back!

    Loved the latte and chilaquiles. Just like I like them, a combo of crisp and soft. A little spice in the sauce.

    I am obsessed. By sheer dumb luck, my better half and I happened upon this beacon in this night. We…read morewent for dinner and were given a full explanation of the menu upon ordering. The interior is classic BBQ joint and the staff were all incredibly friendly and they give you BIG cups with lots of ice- Classic 'Murica. We had ribs, pulled pork, baked beans, slaw, potato salad & cornbread (oink oink) and everything was perfect! You can add your own sauce to the meat (and it is warm!!) and the food we ordered was in combos, making it a great way to try multiple items from the menu. The food tasted just like I was in the South! I can't stop talking about this place. I am so happy they are in the neighborhood. The price is right, not cheap-cheap but definitely a good value and MILES better than a certain other area barbecue place that has fallen from my good graces (I'm looking at you 'red pig'). Whether you are a gringo that wants a meal that tastes like home or anyone who loves anything and everything barbecue- this is where you need to go.

    Overly greasy. Way too rich. I've eaten there 3 times and have gotten sick afterwards every time…read more (I always give a place 3 tries before deciding if I like it or not) But it's better than Porco Rosso's portions Update: this place got worse with time, like any other place in Mexico City. Dry wings and hard brisket, mac & cheese is disgusting, and corn bread dry and tasting 100% like jalapeño. Wtf happened? I have no idea. Too bad it got Mexicanized.
