"Generally speaking, Mexico City locals are loyal to the taquería they’ve been going to since they were kids, but this newcomer has gotten a warm welcome from the neighborhood. Order your tacos one at a time, starting with the chicharrón de queso followed by a round of the taco de chuleta—the pork chop is seasoned perfectly—or the taco de arrachera and an agua fresca (we like the agua de la jefa with horchata and fresh strawberries). The vibe is fun and lively, with Mexican classics blasting from the speakers. Just don’t sit too close to the open grills—otherwise, you’ll definitely smell like carnitas when you leave. No Juárez guide would be complete without Niddo, a quintessential comfort food restaurant that prioritizes using the best ingredients it can get. There are now three additional outposts nearby and one more in Polanco, but the original location is the only place that serves breakfast all day long. Order some fluffy buttermilk pancakes with creme fraiche, one of their excellent bagels with smoked salmon and cream cheese, or the homemade english muffin with breakfast sausage. The lines used to be wild when they first opened, but now it’s fairly easy to get a table." - guillaume guevara
