Came here for dinner on Wednesday in March 2025. Require reservation. Such a great restaurant! We ordered seven course tasting menu. Each course was an amazing, unique and interesting. Especially loved the short rib with banana purée and chocolate sauce and the Jerusalem artichoke cream soup. The service and presentation were Michelin quality. In fact better than many Michelin restaurants we tried in the UK or elsewhere. Thank you for the meal.

Best vegan/vegetarian fine dining experience of my life! Our reservation ended up not making it into the system, but the staff were incredibly gracious and made sure we were taken care of. We were able to select the 10 course vegan/vegetarian menu with wine pairings, and were literally blown away by each course. The level of care that went into making not only delicious but engaging, unique, and complex vegan dishes with all local ingredients will never cease to amaze me. We couldn’t stop gushing to the wait staff about how incredible every single course was, and they all were incredibly gracious and even brought out the chef so we could thank him in person for giving us such an unforgettable dining experience. Every single member of the staff was lovely and attentive and made us feel incredibly welcome. I will be talking about this meal for the rest of my life! Cannot recommend enough!!

I had an incredible dining experience at this restaurant today. Every dish was bursting with authentic Mexican flavors, using local ingredients that were paired creatively by the chef. Every bite was delicious, especially the beef tacos and the tuna seasoned with Mexican spices. The service was outstanding, with staff taking the time to explain the inspiration and design behind each dish. I learned so much about local Mexican cuisine and gourmet combinations. This meal far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

In my very honest opinion, the price is simply just not worth it (1500 pesos for the 6 course tasting menu + automatic 200 for water). The ambiance is cool. The service is good . The food is good , some plates however were pretty average. I'm not a cheap diner but I do feel I want my experience to match the bill. Best from the menu when I was there was the risotto and desserts, very tasty.

One of the best meals I've had not only in La Paz but in all of Mexico and all of my travels! I'm not sure why Nemi doesn't have a Michelin star yet. If you come to LA Paz, you have to come to Nemi...or you didn't really try La Paz!

Wow! This place is truly unique. Their menu offers two options, both of which change every week: a 5-course meal or a 9-course meal, with the option to add wine pairings. We chose the 9-course meal with wine pairings, and we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions of each entrée. I will add a picture of the menu and our dishes. Nothing short of amazing. We enjoyed every bite. Our favorite - if we had to pick one - was the Clams and Setas Mushroom with butter, lime & cilantro. (Chocolate clams in a garlic butter sauce that was exquisite.) Every dish was a harmonized blend of flavors that pleased our palates. I can not say enough about the service and attention to detail. We are grateful to have experienced Nemi. Chef Alejandro's dishes were flawless! Andres was incredibly attentive, passionate, and thorough, explaining each wine pairing in detail and sharing the unique origins of every wine.

The food was absolutely amazing. Easily a top three dinner experience I’ve had in my whole life. Andres was an amazing host and expertly described the dishes and why they were special. Any time my wife and I are in La Paz we shall return. Just a wonderful experience from start to finish.

Amazing food, a wonderful fine-food take on traditional Mexican cuisine, and the service made me feel just at home. Would recommend to anyone staying in La Paz. Also, the wine pairing is recommended! Edit: been there a week after again. The menu had changed, blew me away again, and I was treated as a friend coming back. Loved the experience through and through.

A special place. As soon as you enter, you notice an intimate but lively atmosphere, perhaps no more than 10 tables. Service is outstanding, that right touch of presence but not overwhelming. Highly knowledgeable and informative, yet no air of pretense. We opted for the tasting menu and enjoyed it. Welcoming flavors that were expected (earthy, savory stewed lamb) and also enjoyed new and unique ones as well (such as the cardamom ice cream). Wine pairing sounded amazing, our only regret not trying. We opted for a bottle of cab from Un Ciervo from the Valle de San Vicente, which was just perfect.

Perfect romantic dinner spot. Restaurant decor is elegant but inviting, service was professional yet friendly, and the 9-course tasting menu was a perfect blend of flavors (our only tiny complaint was the meat-flavored gummy that was served at the end of the meal - the couple next to us had the same reaction to this odd taste and we laughed while politely trying to chug water to wash it down). Other than this weird gummy thing, each course was a delicious blend of flavors. Wine and cocktails were fantastic as well. At $100 USD for the tasting menu alone, this is still a way better value than most pretentious restaurants in LA. If you go, have a light lunch and do the 9-course option.

Omg! This was fabulous; went for honeymoon dinner and can't recommend enough. Come hungry, possibly skip lunch or only snack for that. The ambiance is great, the wait staff attentive and the food was phenomenal. Will definitely come back anytime we are in the area. It is pricy, but well worth it Addendum; if you can, make a reservation ahead- open table is how I did it. Otherwise come around 7/8 and hope for the best- the place is small

Conde Nast Traveler wrote an informative article about visiting La Paz in November 2021. As foodies, I was intrigued by the Upscale Dining Experiences it highlighted. I was surprised we were able to get an early reservation at Nemi, one of the restaurants profiled. We were seated at 6pm and were the only diners in the restaurant. Our server told us it gets crowded between 8-10pm. Chef Alex Villagomez opened the restaurant about 2.5 years ago. It has been recognized twice as one of the 100 best restaurants in Mexico. Previously he worked for 10 years at Mexico City's Pujol. If you're looking for international cuisine, glorious flavors and artistically plated food, you are at the right place. Also be prepared for your check to be the highest for any meal on your vacation. With three of us dining, we each tried a different starter and entrée. For starters, we ordered the Chocolata Clams with rasdish and Mexican sauce, Burrata Cheese with cherry tomatoes and the Baked Beet Salad with goat cheese. Incredible flavors, accented with beautiful flowers. We agreed we could have ordered a second of each. For entrees, we ordered the Braised Wagyu Beef Cheek with sweet potato puree, Fettuccine with shrimp and the Baked Short Rib. The Beef Cheeks as expected with incredibly tender, the Fettuccine was super rich and could have fed two and the Short Rib was a tad overcooked, but still delightful. Although we were very full, we decided to share a dessert and ordered the deconstructed Key Lime Pie. It was amazing and allowed you to taste all the layers of the pie. The Conde Nast recommendation was spot-on. We would love to return on another visit.

Outstanding food and wine pairing. We had the 5 course pairing. Menu changes every week. It is one of those places you can tell that they pride themselves on customer service. It is a bit expensive, about $100 USD per person for the menu and 5 course wine pairing. I have travelled all over the world and a bit of a foodie and this was in my top 10 meals of my life. We had reservations at 6:30 and we were one of 3 tables occupied. Heard that most people eat between 8-10 pm.

Still wonderful and great personal service by attentive staff. This time we had the menu with freestyle pairings. It was all delicious and creative. We loved the carrots (!) and ice cream. The rest is like a dream of food yumminess.

It was my husband and eyes last night and beautiful Mexico we did not know where to go to eat we did not want to be a tourist need on the Malecon so we found this restaurant after I read the reviews and did not disappoint. The manager Andre told us every single delicious detail about every single entrée. He describe what wine would be good he did not try to oversell he just simply loved the chef and the talent that's here. Every single week the menu changes to what's local and delicious my husband had a lobster fettuccine which was great I had the sweet potato enchiladas which were out of this world. They have a local IPA that is only served here that my husband said was the best he's ever had. We are from San Diego so that says a lot the desert was cacao crème brûlée and it was out of this world. The service survive the food the bomb

This was my favorite restaurant in La Paz. The menu changes everyday. They cook to order and were able to accommodate our dietary restrictions. I had octopus ceviche and a white fish. The creme brûlée was thee best I've ever had. Service was great too!
