In the heart of Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood is a haven of sophisticated dining. From the moment you walk in, the lush greenery and contemporary artwork create an ambiance that whispers, “You’re in for a treat.” Service was top notch with multiple servers seamlessly tending to everything.
I began with the bread appetizer—warm, substantial, and accompanied by a trio of dipping sauces spanning a spectrum of spice and flavor. For the less adventurous, classic butter was also provided.
The salmon with caper butter was next. The salmon was a masterpiece of delicate pink, melting in the mouth with each bite. The caper butter, a rich and tangy elixir, elevated the fish to a new level.
The roasted duck tacos featured succulent and perfectly seasoned duck, encased in three equally sized soft, pliable tortillas—not too thick, not too flimsy, just right.
The pepper risotto immediately caught my eye on the menu. Creamy, bold, and remarkably peppery, it walked the line between comfort food and upscale elegance.
While I initially declined dessert, the surprise arrival of complimentary popsicles was a quirky, unexpected touch. I quickly succumbed to them. These petite treats were irresistibly delicious and a refreshing culmination to a stellar meal.
Polanco offers no shortage of dining options, but Lampuga stands out. With its impeccable food, prime service, and gorgeous setting, why would you not.
