SOCO Centro
Calle 51 x 56 y 58
Every other Monday, when our house cleaner comes, my wife and I go out for breakfast and run errands. Today we chose SOCO. We’ve been to the Colonia México location many times but had never tried the Centro location because parking is usually scarce. Since we were already heading that way, we took a slight detour to see if there might be an elusive parking spot on Calle 51. It wasn’t looking too promising, but we lucked out and found a spot on the next block.
When we entered the restaurant, we got the last available table. For those who don’t know, the Centro location is small, with five small tables and a few seats at the counter.
We ordered coffee. The menu is the same as the other location, so I went with my favorite: the omelette en costra, an omelette with cheese baked on the outside to make a nice crust, served with bacon, half an avocado, and their delicious sourdough toast.
My wife chose the grilled cheese, which she said was divine. The coffee was also delicious.
Service was very good overall, although our waiter never brought my wife water after she asked for a glass.
It wasn’t an inexpensive breakfast, but I think the prices were reasonable considering the quality. Our two dishes and two coffee drinks came to $550 MXN before tip.
My wife said the bathrooms were nice and clean.
