la fonda is a converted home that was so adorable and served a lovely brunch menu. although it may look small because the first thing you see is the patio full of diners, there is an upstairs where most people sit. i don't think there were any tourists there whatsoever.
we ordered guava juice. …

Portuguese in Mexico City? You bet!! And good too. Start with a bottle of Green Wine, pick just about any entree on the menu (I did) and you can’t go wrong, fish dishes in particular. Finish with some flan and Madeira Wine and you will either be ready to out for the night, or for a nice nap. …

Contramar is somewhere one goes when one wants to celebrate. It's expensive, but worth every pesito. Not a quiet or subdued place (imagine a classy cantina), it fills up by around 2:30 each day -- weekdays are dominated by politicos and impresarios in suits; by Thursday and Friday the arty Roma se…

El Candelero is the most expensive Mexican food restaurant in Mexico. It is luxury at its highest, and high cuisine at its best. From pre-hispanic dishes rescued from history, to nouveau Mexican cooking, this place will not disappoint. The decor of the place is baroque, and grand, and reservation…

Being a steak/burger kind of guy, on one of my numerous trips to Mexico City I decided to find the place in town with the best. Usually that’s not my style, as burgers over three dollars usually don’t taste much better--or better at all--than cheaper ones, but since it’s pretty cheap in compar…

My step-father is Lebanese and I grew up eating Middle Eastern food. Needless to say I love it. Not my idea to eat Lebanese food in Mexico City but am I glad I did. This place was fantastic!! Once again, we were glutton to the vast amount of incredible food offered here. Truely authentic and mu…

I was a devotee of 50 Friends pizza until I finally ventured over to Quim Jardí's newish low-key Roma Norte restaurant. (For anyone who doesn't know, Jardí is the mastermind behind the city's best comida corrida at La Rauxa in Condesa.) There's no sign on the street, and word of mouth still hasn…

For 85 pesos, one cannot do better than lunch at La Rauxa. A Spanish restaurant with outdoor seating on a small street off Parque Mexico in La Condesa, the daily lunch menu includes the flavored agua del dia, soup, a salad, a choice of four entrees (which includes beef, chicken, fish or a vegetaria…

To most Americans that live anywhere besides the Mexican border states, we have a certain view of Mexican food is and should be. Often this is based on trips to the local Taco Bell or On the Border chain restaurants. Perhaps you go to a more personal, independantly operated Mexican restaurant, suc…

Unbelievable. I felt like a glutton eating lunch at this place. As the story goes, Sep's was originally a restaurant in Paris in the early 1900's and either the owner, or someone closely associated with the owner, brought the Sep's concept (and name) to Mexico City. On the side of a busy Mexico C…

Cafe Tacuba, is one of the oldest and most historic restaurants in Mexico City. Very few institutions survived the Mexican Revolution at the beginning of the 20th century, but Cafe Tacuba is one of the few, proud restaurants to have a history dating back this far. Tile walls and marble floors, alo…

El Rincon de la Lechuza is the best taqueria (taco restaurant) in Mexico, if you ask me. The name means "The owl's corner" and this charming little restaurant with low ceilings speaks of years and years of great meals. The ambiance is definitely family friendly, although you are just as likely to …

Frutos Prohibidos is a cosy place where you can enjoy different breakfasts, lunch or even dinner. The menu varies from salads over tortilla sandwiches to eggs, many different fresh made juices, cakes. Anyone can find his choice over there, I think. What I liked most about the place, except the taste…

I read in some guidebook or other that Hola Taco was an especially tasty option for grabbing lunch on the cheap in Condesa. So when I first got to Mexico City, and found myself in the neighborhood one afternoon, I decided to pay it a visit. Being a naturally reserved Midwesterner, I found that fir…

Of Mexico City's trendier cantinas -- Covadonga in Roma Norte, Xel-ha in Condesa -- La Bipolar has by far the best food, and at very reasonable prices. Service is friendlier than usual for DF, and the crowd tends to be younger than at either Covadonga or Xel-ha.
The menu has a pretty nice variet…
