    We probably would not have tried this restaurant, but it was close to our new home on a very rainy…read morenight. The cozy, arty atmosphere was just right and casual dress was acceptable. There are two dining areas and a fascinating little store that sells tea, jewelry, designer clothes and in the hallway, beauty products (I think). Note: It is quite dark. I felt really old because I needed my phone light to read the menu, but our much younger waiter also had trouble seeing to process our credit card lol. Service was kind and professional. Tuscan food is unusual for us and we don't eat many of the ingredients, so our selections were a bit limited. Happily, we both found dishes that we enjoyed. My husband had chicken breast, which came with a salad snd sweet potato puree. The salad dressing was so light and lemony. I want to come back just for that. My white fish was Mediterranean in style and cooked in a sauce of cherry tomato, artichokes, olives and capers. It was delicious, but enough for two or three meals, so I took some home. Our meals came with herbed crisp breads and herb butter. They have a nice selection of teas and I absolutely loved the white tea with flower petals and lychee. Overall, a great find.

    El Hidalguense is a traditional Mexican restaurant in the Roma Sur neighborhood of Mexico City…read more They specialize in lamb barbacoa wrapped in maguey leaves and slow-cooked overnight. They have two stories and we went to the second floor for our table. QUESADILLAS ($135 MXN) - we ordered the potatoes and chorizo which were good. Note that by default these will not come with cheese so you'll have to specify you want it with cheese if the server doesn't ask. 4/5 QUESO FUNDIDO ($150) - this dish came a little late and the cheese was hard quickly making it not too appetizing. Even if it came sooner I don't think it was too memorable. 3/5 CHORIZO CASERO ($190) - these were chorizo pieces grilled and sliced. They were smoky, charred, and delicious. These were the group's favorite by far. 5/5 BARBACOA ($1100) - these are sold by the kg and we got one kg for our group of 8. It was a good amount but we had some leftover. With the rest of the food we ordered we could've gone with less. It was tender but some in our party found the lamb to be too gamey especially after eating more and more of it. 4.5/5 GUACAMOLE ($85) - by default it was spicy but you can also ask for non-spicy. It was a standard good guacamole. 4/5 It's a family-style type of restaurant where many of the dishes are served with tortillas, salsas, limes, cilantro, and onion. You get your hands dirty at a spot that is very local and traditional.

After doing a bit of research I saw that the restaurant was featured on an episode of Netflix's Taco Chronicles (S. 1 Ep. 5). We arrived at the restaurant around 5pm on a Saturday. The place was going to close in an hour, but it was like a revolving door of guests. The restaurant was buy, but we were able to be seated right away. Loved the decor of the place. It was very vibrant, and being able to see into the kitchen attributed to the liveliness of the place. Service was great. Our server was pretty attentive, and there were other servers who came by our table and offered assistance. The food came out in a timely manner. We were in and out of the restaurant way ahead of their closing time. My tour guide recommended we get the consommé, which I got to try. It was too gamey for my liking, but the broth was rich and flavorful. I had the barbacoa tacos, and they were delicious. The lamb was extremely tender and the flavor was far less gamey than the consommé. All the accompaniments that were provided to dress up the tacos were nice. We also ordered the queso fundido for good measure, which I loved because of the fried garlic.
