Nicos - Review - Azcapotzalco - Mexico City - The Infatuation

"In the less touristy Azcapotzalco is Nicos, a longstanding institution that's been around since 1957. Traditional Mexican food is gussied up with creative twists that make dishes feel refreshingly new, and keep us proudly carrying an “I’m a regular here” card. Their menu is a celebration of Mexican ingredients, like a super decadent bone marrow sope with the perfect green salsa, their famous Tijuana-style caesar salad prepared tableside, and arguably the best chiles en nogada in town (available seasonally from July to September). The inside is simple—think typical Mexican red pastel walls—but it’s the food, served in Talavera plates hand-painted in Puebla, that truly shines. photo credit: Andrew Reiner photo credit: Andrew Reiner photo credit: Andrew Reiner photo credit: Andrew Reiner Pause Unmute" - Guillaume Guevara
