NIV

NIV has been one of my favorite spots in Mexico City, but sadly, it’s well past its prime since the change in management. They didn’t have half the dishes on the menu, which is a big problem given how small it is, and they were also missing many of the wines they were offering by the glass. Their bottle selection is a fraction of what it used to be. Staff were pretty reckless with food restrictions. This will be my last visit; there are so many other great places to visit.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Really great vibes here. The food is very good although small portioned, the bread is absolutely perfect, the music is infectious, a really good experience through and through. Unfortunately it felt like our server was really pushing us to get wine which we didn’t want but as tourist didn’t feel comfortable saying no. Otherwise, a good experience and would try again for sure

Amazing little wine bar with surprisingly great food. The staff is super friendly and the place has an awesome vibe. There is even a little vinyl room in the back with great music.

Such a great spot! Vibey, stylish, and super well-curated. The team really knows their wines and makes you feel at home without any pretension. Every glass they recommended was spot-on, and the food perfectly matched the vibe. One of those places you end up staying longer than planned. Easily my favorite wine bar in CDMX.

The wine selection is incredible, and they make some seriously delicious cocktails. The food menu changes often, which is another great reason to keep coming back — there’s always something new to try. The service and staff are truly top-notch. Highly recommend checking this place out!

Unbelievable food and drinks in CDMX! Loved sitting at the bar with the open garage doors. We ordered the baba, croquetas, carpaccio, and steak frites and everything was amazing! We went on a Sunday night so it was pretty quiet but such a great experience

More of an appetizer and wine/cocktail bar than a sit down restaurant. We had a good time and the food was pretty good. On the pricey side. We had a reservation at 8pm, (we were late by 15 mins) on a Friday, we were served drinks immediately and seated around 45 mins later. Once we ordered the food came out quickly. The portions are SMALL. The baba ghanoush had a creamy texture and a buttery smoky flavor, we’d recommend. Zucchini was a bit oily, but it made up for it in crunch and dipping sauce. The Sashimi was tasty and they add an oil as they serve it. And the lamb was solid, again small serving. It felt like a bar inside, it was crowded and loud. Which is not a dealbreaker for us. The long wait was tough, but if you go with the expectation of waiting you’ll have a good time.

Cute wine bar with a decent F&B selection. We only tried 3 starters, of which my favorite was the babaganoush. The duck rillette and beef carpaccio were different from what I’ve expected. They were able to make the dishes gluten free by skipping the bread (it would have been even better if there were corn tortillas in lieu of the bread). The servers were knowledgeable about the drinks 🥂 Can’t say that I love the food based on the little that I’ve had, but I’m curious to try their mains next time round!
