Probably one of the best restaurants in Mexico City. Azul is a beautiful restaurant that serves traditional Mexican dishes with breathtaking presentation. This is not your average meal; it’s a spectacular culinary experience. If you’re looking for delicious gourmet food, look no further. Here’s what I tried: appetizer: “panuchos de cochinita pibil” handmade corn tortillas stuffed with black beans, topped with cochinita pibil (marinated, slow roasted pork) and pickled red onions; so good! entrée: “pipián rojo vegano” red sauce made from sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, and guajillo chiles served over gourds; this was the most underwhelming dish for me. entrée: “buñuelos de pato rostizado” fritter...
DO NOT MISS THIS BREAKFAST EXPERIENCE! As someone who travels frequently, I truly appreciate a well-run breakfast spot. This place feels like dining in a Secret Garden, featuring a stunning dining area with a soaring 30-foot ceiling. Surrounded by lush plants and charming bamboo tables, this beautiful breakfast destination offers attentive table service for pastries, drinks, hot chocolate, and homemade tortillas. I enjoyed watching guests choose their pastries from delightful little carts and loved seeing the hot chocolate prepared right at the table. I sampled homemade tortillas prepared three different ways, and I was impressed by the attentiveness of the staff. We will definitely return a...
The food is very good and the ambiance is perfect. The enchiladas de mole are the best I’ve had in CDMX. The shrimp was also very good but overpriced and only included 5 pieces of shrimp. The guacamole had a strange creamy consistency that I wasn’t a fan of but the flavor was good. The Belgian chocolate was just okay, will probably try the chocolate tamale instead next time. The drinks were excellent, especially the Jamaica mezcalito. Highly recommend the carajillo as well to pair with your dessert. Service was okay. We waited quiet a long time to receive our check after finishing our meals.
A beautifully decorated Mexican restaurant that is delicious, and authentic. I definitely loved the vibe of the place and the decor is super cute. There is no wait for the table on a Saturday. And we didn’t make a reservation and we were still seated immediately. There is a beautiful indoor garden that’s super adorable. The only thing I noticed is that the waiters seem unhappy and miserable. Are they overworked? I hope they’re compensated well. I can definitely recommend this restaurant. It is definitely more on the high end. However, I think it’s well worth it with the vibe of the place.

Really not impressed with this placed named “authentic” Mexican food. It’s more a fusion Mexican with very high price point with mediocre food. The space is cute in a little garden surrounded by greens. We shared the taco for appetizer. It’s very basic nothing better than street taco. The main I had a fish dish, it’s basically the fish in Marianna sauce but it was listed as an Mexican traditional food. Very disappointed. Service was ok, our waiter looked tired and never smiled. A strange vibe.
I visited this restaurant specifically for the Chile en Nogada, and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly timed for the season! I also tried their guacamole with crickets (or grasshoppers; I can't remember which), and it was incredibly tasty. The food was great, and the staff provided excellent customer service. The atmosphere was pleasant as well. I highly recommend this place!
Probably my best Mexican meal! Everything was fantabulous from the drinks to the food to the service. I got to drink mezcal out of the artisanal gourd cups, and gorge on cochinita pibil and short rib with mole sauce. I wish they had bought our table lamp when we started and not at the time of the bill, the photos would have looked better
Really cute place loved the food. Def order multiple mains as they were a little small but definitely packed on the flavor. A great place to share food and order the entire menu! So many flavors and I really appreciate they list where in Mexico each dish is from

This is a delightful place with great food. We were fortunate to visit when they had a special mole menu, and everything we tried was delicious. The attentive staff contributed to a lovely evening.
Loved the whole experience! Our waiter was very helpful with gluten free choices. And the mango guac and the shrimp mango dish were amazing.
