The 25 Best Restaurants In Mexico City

"Yes, the food at Tetetlán is very good, but it isn’t the main reason to stop by. It’s one of the most unique and eye-catching restaurants we’ve ever seen, and it’s located next to the Luis Barragan-designed Casa Pedregal (which you can and should visit). The huge space, formerly the property’s horse stables, is a blend of Barragan architecture and a more modern setup, with a transparent floor exposing the natural volcanic lava stones, and a mix of strange, perfect furniture. There’s a gigantic private book collection scattered throughout the space, which you can browse while going through the huge menu of tacos, tlayudas, and pizzas." - guillaume guevara

"Located in Jardines del Pedregal, an elegant suburb on the outskirts of the city, Tetetlán is worth the trip. Originally the horse stables of a home designed by Mexico’s most influential architect, Luis Barragán, the space was recently restored by an art collector who lives next door. It is many things: a café serving shade-grown local coffee, a showcase for local designers, a restaurant serving creative Mesoamerican dishes, a yoga studio, a hotel for visiting artists who are asked to donate a book to Tetetlán’s extensive collection, and a listening library. But it’s the space’s design that’s truly breathtaking: glass floors look down on the area’s local purple-black volcanic rock, and the sun pouring in from skylights is warmed by rafters painted in Barragán’s signature pink."

We were astonished with the design and atmosphere of the restaurant! We went there for lunch and were seated right away. The price was average to high. The food in my opinion was Mexican and Italian with some pasta menu section. There were shops inside the facility as well. My friends got some art prints from there. They said they were rare finds. The food taste was average for me.

The restaurant is one of the most unique spaces I have had the pleasure to dine at. The food was beautiful displayed however, disappointing and taste, but if I were in Mexico City again, I would definitely go back because it's just so unique. They have a beautiful gift shop and you're surrounded by a library of books and records while you dine it's really quite amazing. Next door is La Casa Pedregal, a home designed by Luis Barragán, one of Mexico’s most famous architects. Visits are allowed, but only by appointment and worth visiting!

This restaurant is probably one of the best restaurants we had in Mexico. The space is amazing with very interesting architectures. The food was very good. We really enjoyed our time there. After lunch, we had some pastries and coffee in the cafe. We went upstairs to just chill. I recommend to anyone to come and discover the space. It's really something unique and amazing. The food was very good.

The environment and atmosphere of this restaurant is so stunning it almost gets 5 stars based on that alone. The glass floor, the lava rock walls, and the bookstore-like atmosphere are almost unmatched. The food and service were 4 stars - there were times where it was hard to get our servers attention. We also had a slight hiccup with some dishes coming out dirty that the staff quickly fixed for us. I also love the seasonal menu offerings they had that could really bring this to a 5 star rating. If people ask, I'd recommend trying it.

The aesthetic design of the place is simply astonishing. The decoration, the ambiance and the overall vibe of the place is truly stunning. The service could have been better, but it wasn’t terrible. Physical aspect: There are different levels to the place. There is a gift shop when you come in. On the same floor there is a yoga studio and another shop where you can buy clothes and other cute goodies. Vinyl discs with classics are also displayed on that floor. Then the downstairs area is divided into different sections. There is this library, feels like you’re in an indie movie the entire time. The floor is clear so you can see the volcanic area. My favorite part of the restaurant was definitely the architecture. Now the food: we ordered 3 types of tacos which were decent but not the best ones we’ve had. Especially for the price. They don’t sell them by orders of three, they sell them individually. Each one is about $4USD From all the tacos we ordered, the only one I actually liked was the steak one. I believe I must’ve read the menu wrong, but there was an al pastor pineapple taco that was only made of pineapple, it did not have any meat or pork, which was disappointing because I am all about my protein. It also lacked flavor. I liked that they were purple. That was aesthetic. I also ordered the chilaquiles which were my favorite. You can build your own chilaquiles and add whichever topping you desire. This was a great idea and the taste was delicious! I loved the spices that they give you! We also ordered a couple of beverages. We got coffee (5/5), ginger shots with beets (5/5) and orange and carrot juices (5/5). I was curious about the blue corn horchata so I ordered it as well and it tasted a bit raw, or improperly mixed. I don’t know how to describe it but it wasn’t a huge fan. It was disappointing because I was very excited to try it. Overall, this is a beautiful place and if you are nearby, definitely check them out. Good is ok, but I probably shouldn’t have ordered tacos. There is a national park nearby and other activities that you can do. Keep in mind you need to ask for permission before going in. Make sure you ask the staff and they can guide you.

Absolutely loved my experience at Tetetlán! The ambiance is simply stunning—every detail is thoughtfully designed, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a meal. The food was not only beautifully presented but also delicious, with flavors that truly impressed. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and a gorgeous setting!

One of the most beautiful restaurants you will ever see. There is also several shops where you can purchase locally made art and handicrafts including clothes there's also a boxing gym and yoga studio on the top floor. The entire floor of the downstairs is glass which exposes beautiful lava rocks the lighting and ambience with the plants and vines inside or out of this world .

This restaurant is truly an amazing place, blending the charm of an old building with contemporary and modern touches. The unique design creates a space that feels both historic and fresh. The menu offers a wide range of options, all made with purely organic ingredients that deliver fresh and tasty flavors. The restaurant spans three floors, each offering a different ambiance and seating experience. In addition to the delicious food, they also have an interesting selection of drinks, from fresh juices to various coffees—both of which were excellent. Beyond the dining areas, there are a couple of boutiques, a yoga studio, and a cozy book reading section, making it much more than just a place to eat. It’s a wonderful spot to relax, explore, and enjoy a great meal in a beautifully designed setting.

First off, the decor of this place is INCREDIBLE. The restaurant floor is made of glass and gives you visibility to the volcanic rock underneath. There's plenty of greenery throughout the space. Such a beautiful restaurant. I ordered the salmon pasta with caviar and it was pretty good but nothing too special. One important note to my fellow travelers: ask for bottled water. I don't mean to knock on the restaurant or anything but I assumed because it was a more upscale restaurant, the tap water would be ok.... It was not. My stomach was not great for the next 7 days. Overall, I enjoyed the restaurant and would recommend it.

Ordered: Elotitos Enrique (MX $160): baby corn with ancho chili mayonnaise Tostada de Mariscos (MX $145): octopus, fish, and shrimp in ajillo chili Tetela Tetetlan (MX $220): corn dough triangle, hoja santa, ayocote's beans, cream, quesillo, pijijiapan cheese, and Oaxacan mole Tabla de Pulpo y Tuetan (MX $345) Pescado del Dia (MX $435): with hibiscus chilhuacle sauce, hoja santa, black garlic, and sweet potato purée Tarta de Platano (MX $145) Aya's take: More than a restaurant, Tetetlan is an architectural masterpiece from the glass floors to the volcanic rocks right below it, to the library full of books to the farm-to-table dining experience with innovative seasonal menus. I love how Tetetlan allows guests to feel the blend of food, culture, and art all in a single space. Now onto the food! Of the appetizers we ordered, the Elotitos Enrique was the best. It was such a unique take on elote, had great flavor, and was super addicting. The Tabla de Pulpo y Tuetan was loaded with octopus and bone marrow; I actually liked it a lot more than I expected. The Pescado del Dia was also cooked exceptionally well and the sweet potato purée surprisingly went so well with it. For dessert, they brought out their dessert cart which has beautiful and aesthetically pleasing desserts to choose from. These rotate frequently as I didn't see the one I was looking for. We opted for the Tarta de Platano which had great presentation and I loved the lightness, sweetness, and freshness in each bite. I'm a sucker for banana desserts so I knew I'd like it. Service was so slow despite the restaurant being maybe half full. There was also somewhat of a language barrier; only one waiter spoke English and he wasn't even our main waiter. Good experience, overall!

Vibes, immaculate. Haven't ever quite been to a restaurant like it. The floors, stunning. The feeling of sitting in a wildlife reserve or nature center is amazing. I kept accidentally looking down during my meal and gasping because I'd forgotten where we were. I loved the salsas, especially. My entree was solid (the mushroom pasta), but I wasn't super hungry - I would've done better going for the tacos or a meat dish, I wish I would've gone when I was hungrier. I only wish I'd come on the night Dua Lipa was here, shame.

After touring Luis Barragán's Casa Pedregal next door, we popped in Tetetlan for a light snack before heading to the airport. This is an incredible place! Plexiglass floors that let you look at the volcanic rock and plants beneath you, soaring ceilings, an upstairs lounge with records, and massive library of books you can browse as you eat. They have an open kitchen, so our 6-year-old was enthralled watching the food being prepared, giving us time to actually enjoy our food. The food is not only delicious but also beautiful. The vibe is amazing and we loved every moment we were there. Next time we will come for a full meal, but I'm grateful we were able to experience a taste of what they offer.

An unfortunate letdown. To start things off, the ambiance is actually quite nice -- beautifully built restaurant and very unique. However, at times it felt like it was unsure of what it was. You first walk into a coffee shop with an adjacent gift shop and then can choose to go downstairs to the restaurant or upstairs to a room with vinyls and yoga classes?! Our culinary experience was a bit odd. They were fully staffed yet somehow provided really poor, inattentive service throughout the night. Important to note that there was only three other tables at the restaurant besides ours, so they certainly weren't busy. For appetizers we got the plantain and the octopus. The plantain portion was way too large and didn't taste great. The octopus on the other hand came with very little octopus and a lot of potato -- a complete rip off, and the sauce that came with it didn't compliment the octopus and potatoes very well -- lacked acidity. Overall bad. For entrees we had the beet salad, the fish with white wine sauce, and the seared tuna presented as a sashimi. The entrees weren't bad, but were uninspired and certainly not worth the price. To top things off we had the most disgusting mixed drink -- the Nahui. Avoid it at all costs! It was a unanimous agreement amongst me and the two other people I came with that everything about it was horrible. It was a citrus/orange based drink with gin and rimmed with unsweetened coco powder. It came to the table at room temperature and was the culmination of everything not to do with a mixed drink. Finally, the desert was fine and nothing to write home about. If you must come here I would recommend coming only for desert and skipping the food and drinks all together. It's very possible that we just got very unlucky with the things we ordered and our waiter that night, so just tread lightly. I would also recommend a complete reworking of the menu to those in charge, but I'm just some guy.

Unique spot that is a must visit if you are in the area. We came out here to tour the adjoining home, which is very beautiful. We visited just before lunch and the menu had a brunch vibe. We tried a turkey sandwich and egg tacos. Sadly we did not sample their impressive mezcal cart, wow it looked awesome. - Turkey sandwich came on two huge slices of pillowy, slightly yellow bread slices. I was reminded of "Texas toast" but it was much lighter. The filling included roasted green apples, an herb pesto and pan fried slices of roast turkey thigh. It was very unusual and I ended up pulling it apart and eating it with a knife and fork. Not what I was expecting but very tasty. - Egg tacos came on a large platter and was pretty simple. But there was a huge quantity of a green salsa on the eggs that was a bit too sour for my friend. He finished it, but suggested asking for the sauce on the side in the future. We also tried some of their fruit juice blends. These arrived in bottles almost as if they had been made in advance. They were ok, but would probably not order again. Service was excellent and very friendly. The gift shop and small bakery/coffee shop in the lobby are both worth a visit, really great things to discover! We took an Uber to and from, not sure how easy it would be to park.

OMG! This place is unbelievable! The whole vibe and atmosphere of this place is out of this world. Every single aspect is super well thought out. The staff goes above and beyond, and the food was absolutely amazing!

Beautiful setting. Very unique. Very bad food. Overcooked and under seasoned meat and fish that is also very overpriced. Indifferent service that brings the starter long after the main dish and still tries to charge for the item after it was returned as no longer needed. Shout out to Ernesto who apparently was brought in to take over after the rest of the staff (who were not doing much on a slow night) failed at the basics of table service. He was the only living thing at this restaurant that was helpful. The rest is decor. There's a book store to visit if you need to see the space. I would make sure i've already eaten before hand though - unless you don't need your money or your time.

Stopped here for lunch on our way back to the city from Xochimilco. Top three highlights were the elixir drinks (blue hydrating one was my favourite), soup (mushroom and the chilled watermelon were both AMAZING), and the banana tart dessert. My main dish, the veggie tlayuda was ok. I wouldn't order it again, but the appetizers & aforementioned highlights made up for it. There's a nice shop on the entry level which offers a variety of items including clothes, beauty products, jewelry, and dining ware (mirrors what is used in the restaurant). My friend got a mezcal set and I got a pair of tea cups.

Our first night in Cdmx was an absolute disappointment. Everything was extremely salty. The English version of the menu lists Alan Cops with a Demi glacé and sweet potato purée. Well this item is not a lamb chop but instead is shredded lamb cooked birria style. Restaurant needs to get a better translator. I ordered the short ribs which also came with what could've been a lovely sauce had it not been so salty. The sweet potato purée was ice cold and the rest of the entree was room temperature. My nephew ordered a ribeye medium rare and the middle of his meat was pretty much raw. All in a all very disappointing meal including the desserts. The service was mediocre with the waiter not remembering who ordered what and forgetting to bring cutlery after the appetizers. The ambiance is incredible and perhaps a visit during the day to see the home of Luis Barragán would be worth the trip back but never got a meal.

This is the place if you are looking for something different. Beyond the food, which is GREAT, Tetetlán offers an original scenario where you are sitting and eating in a nice cave full of Mexican decorations. Tetetlán has a cafeteria, restaurant, reading and music listening spots, yoga and meditation classes; so, as you can see, is a very unique place. Please do not leave this place without ordering a regular coffee, concha de matcha and molletes with longaniza.

5.0 stars. How does one describe the essence of Tetetlan? Well, I know a group of itinerant musicians from Mexico City who intermittently spend time in my current home city of San Antonio. They described a space where you walk over volcanic rock and explain that each corner of the restaurant is beautiful and wonderfully eclectic in its own right. They deadpan that it looks like a perfect Instagram space but clearly value it much more than that. You check Instagram and realize that it is indeed either a well cultivated page, a gorgeous space, or both. You travel to Mexico, go far off the beaten path, arrive at this restaurant, and take comfort that is the latter. I have written a ton of words, but here are the ones that matter. The food here is absolutely incredible. I came to Mexico City to eat at one of the world's greatest restaurants (Quintonil) and eat a month's worth of fatty tacos in 36 hours. All of that food was great, but the single best dish I had in Mexico City occurred at Tetetlan. If they continue to serve the cauliflower I ate two weeks ago, order it immediately. It was by far the best cauliflower I have eaten (across 19 countries and probably 200+ preparations). The flavor profile compared to using Lebanese cooking techniques with a light dose of sugar to finish off the dish. It was absolute perfection. The pictures esquites and lechon are also fine orders though I found myself gravitating mostly towards the vegetarian selections from the menu. There is a random bookshelf in this restaurant that adds to the really cool space. You can buy clothing items at the front of the store. It was a beautiful, sexy and romantic space that still manages to be understated. I wish there was a place like this in San Antonio. Or really anywhere in the States. I haven't found it to date. Tetetlan is a pretty distant cab ride from most places that a tourist will visit in Mexico City. I'm so happy that we took the recommendation of my musician friends and came here. It was an absolute delight, and certainly an experience I hope to repeat.

Probably my new favorite place on EARTH! We received a tour of Barragán's Casa Pedregal next door and had dinner here at Tetetlan after. Staff is amazing, food is out of this world! The ambiance is something I've never experienced - literally walking on glass that covers remnants of the volcanic eruption. Don't get me started on the amazing selection of books and records you can peruse as an after dinner activity. We can't wait to come back here some day!

This is so disappointing as the place is wonderful -- glass floors over volcanic rocks, surrounded by books, with records and more books upstairs, a small gallery, and a few shops. The food, however, was very mediocre or bad, and I'm suffering gastric distress the next day. The tlacoyas were piled with seemingly every vegetable on the planet which was way too much, the tortilla was dry as were the beans, and the cheese was a thick blanket. The marlin tacos were bland. The octopus was not fresh and smelled a little off -- I shouldn't have eaten this and I am paying the price. There is way, way better Oaxacan food in Mexico City. I might come here for a coffee or drink and to read or something, but never for a meal. I learned my lesson. A complete overhaul of the menu and cooking staff might make me come back and try it again.

Tetetlan was recommended by me from the farmer's market. It is a little bit off the beaten path, but the food was super delicious. I ordered + roasted huiltacoche in a fava bean puree + fish of the day steamed in edible leaves + beet salad + mushroom soup + chocolate rock.

The best! At one of Barragán house's. But they need to improve their supply of raw materials, cause frequently they don't have all the meals that appears in the menu.

Nice ambience, great spaces and concept. We came for breakfast, food was good but a bit pricy for what we got. Still, we'll come again.
