The usual Starbucks. Great location, though.
Ideal of you're somewhere around this área.

The front windows are boarded up (a security measure) but this makes it like a subterranean cavern. And the music is JUST FAR TOO LOUD. Have to give this a 2 until fixed.
Everything is really good... except that if you like to eat outside, there will be a lot of people selling you stuff or asking for money.

Also, parking isn't an easy task nearby, I suggest Uber or something similar.

My overall experience was highly upsetting. The service was just bad.
When I arrived there were about 3 people before me. I ordered a breakfast muffin and coffee frappe. The person who took my order was a girl. There were a total of 5 people working, 2 girls and 3 guys. The guys were quick to make my frappe and deliver it. After 20 minutes, all the people in front of me had been given their food and even some people that arrived after. When I asked the cashier for my sandwich she said she was making it but when I looked over the counter, the other girl was on her phone. Finally after another 5 minutes they deliver the sandwhich and the girl asked me "what are you waiting for". I had to repeat my order again and when she spoke to the girl that took my order they just laughed. After 25+ minutes, I was given my sandwich with no apology. I will be returning to Starbucks but not this location
We had the chicken pesto brie crepe and tomatoe basil soup. Outstanding. Highly recommend
Clearly didn’t want to serve us. We sat for 15 minutes in a mostly empty restaurant and the waiter never looked our way. Americans not welcome 😅

Wonderful crepes and other French cuisine offerings! They offer GF crepes made with buckwheat. Nice wine selection.

Excellent restaurant with great ambience and food. Some interesting things observed were that it’s a Mexican restaurant and instead chips we were served with bread, butter like Italian restaurant. Also we ordered soup which was totally dry and made of noodles very tasty though

This place fills up fast during the week, but it is a nice, bustling atmosphere where it is fun to watch the world go by. The worst thing about this place is the security guard who makes you feel like an intruder.

Cannot speak their praises enough. The wait is long but as soon as you are sat you are met with amazing hot chocolate and pastries.

Food was excellent, but the pastries, nata, and hot chocolate were the standouts. Will return immediately as soon as we are back in town.
Highly recommend visiting this restaurant if you are in the area. Their hot chocolate is yummy! Tres leches was ok but the chillaques with the green sauce was just amazing. The interior was so beautiful and they have wifi so if you want to catch up on those emails or just browse with a sip of hot chocolate it's a great place.

Sunday lunch hour was very hectic, about an hour wait to get seated. There were many servers but didn't seem like it was enough. Servers were running around and forget to check up on you. I had the mole negro with chicken breast and it was good. I like the sauce, lots of spices, a lil spicy, but not sweet. Chicken on the other hand was slightly overcooked and bland w/o the sauce. Hot chocolate was good but I didn't think it was worth the price. I would not wait next time if there's a line.

First time. I ordered the shrimp tacos, albondegas and a beer. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. The spices were a perfect compliment, green salsa was provided on the side. The albondegas were served with a chipotle tomato sauce, along with tortillas and beans. The albondegas were excellent. The entire meal was flavorful and filling. I thought the prices were reasonable for the quality

An excellent restaurant. Price to value very good. The food and service (Gracias an Orlando!) outstanding. Very nice ambiance. We spent hours over a fine lunch. We can recommend the sopa de verdolaga, chile relleno de queso, and the mole verde. The menu is full of classics. I might make the suggestion that they work on their tortillas, perhaps to match some of the others we are enjoying in CDMX.

This was e really good find. The place is wonderfully decorated. And the dramatic light in the restroom. Waw (nobody speaks about this area of the restaurant, and lot of time it’s an after thought). Back to the food We had an appetizer with kind of a white fish ceviche. Was spectacular. Then we had roasted duck with noodles. That duck was cooked to perfection. Nice and moist. Just amazing. I had a dessert. Which I can’t recall the name. But it was so nice. It was huge but so good I ate it all.
This is a place of 6 star atmosphere. Truly worth a visit
Our server was really nice and very welcoming. But the staff gave outstanding service.

I just had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant. Let me tell you, the food was nothing short of amazing. I opted for the grilled octopus, and it was so tender, it practically felt like butter in my mouth. My husband went with the chicken and goat cheese sauce, which was an absolute delight – it's truly a dish to die for.

The restaurant's ambiance was fantastic, setting the perfect tone for our evening. What made the experience even better was our server, Jonathan. He was absolutely incredible, being both friendly and incredibly attentive. He also gave us some great recommendations, including their specialties.

However, I do have one piece of feedback for the management. It was quite noticeable that there were no female servers. I spotted only one or two female employees in the restaurant, but the absence of female servers in 2023 is disappointing. Nonetheless, this didn't overshadow the fantastic dining experience we had. We'll definitely be returning when they hire more female servers.

Modern Singaporean restaurant in a chic setting.

What I liked:
- Complimentary soy sauce marinated beans (reminds me of the marinated peanuts that I have with porridge)
- Achar (mildly spicy, refreshing vegetable starter with nice touch of peanuts)
- Pollo Makan (the meat is very tender and tasty, though the sauce was a bit overwhelming towards the end)
- Pickled green chili on the noodles were nice (though could be even more sour)

What could be better:
- Escargots XO (it was a mix of mushroom and escargots, and the XO sauce did not have enough kick for my liking)
- Laksa (unfortunately it was served lukewarm.. and I was hoping for more spice and citrus notes)
- Pollo Makan and Pato rostizado essentially have the same sauce, so the dishes tasted repetitive
- Cerdo charsiew (did not have the texture nor flavor that I was looking for. The meat was dry and the flavor was the same as Pollo Makan and Pato rostizado, as opposed to the carmelized bbq sauce I was expecting)
- The side of rice served with the meats could be even more aromatic (e.g. ginger, shallots, etc)

Overall the food was good, though I would not order three different meats in the same seating because they taste too similar. Having lived in Singapore for almost a decade, admittedly I am probably more critical about the flavors due to my personal cravings for authentic Sg dishes.

Service and other comments:
- Shockingly underwhelming service given that it was not busy when I went. Perhaps the servers were new and not trained, but they were not particularly helpful when asked about gluten allergy and the wine selection. It felt like the team was disorganized and lost, and we had to ask several different staff for help, because the requests kept getting dropped.
- The signature chili crab was not available when I went, which certainly added to the disappointment.
- While they have a fairly extensive wine menu on paper, they did not have many sparkling wine options. The server also appeared inexperienced in serving wine.
- There is gluten in Pollo Makan and other meats given the use of soy sauce.

Given that the price point is fairly high, I was definitely expecting better service.

Loved the food, the place and the staff. The escargots are amazing as well as the duck, definitely the stars of the menu.

Stopped here for breakfast one morning while I was staying in La Condesa. Wonderful, quiet spot, great service, awesome food and cocktails.
This great French place had amazing pasta ... I wanted something different and I got it. The salad had pears that the chef warmed up. The bowl was large and the salad was fresh and crunchy with giant shavings of cheese. The fettuccine bolognese had CARROTS in the sauce. I knew it was going to be good and it was. Big serving and just thick pasta .....

The good: Most of the staff speaks English which is helpful to business travelers such as myself, an accommodation that doesn’t need to be made as I am a guest in their country but very helpful nonetheless.

The bad: This store seems to choose its own hours. The first day I arrived I checked the hours outside so I’d know if it was available the next morning. The sign outside says Open 6:00am. I arrived at 6:15 and they were not open. My driver tells me they open at 6:30am so I tried that the next day and they were open. I arrive everyday at 6:30am for my routine but a week later I arrive at 6:30am and the doors are locked, and the barista hand signals to me 7:00am. Very frustrated, I finally look online and it says 7:00am, which is the next point, what coffee shop opens at 7:00? I have a pretty standard schedule and have never encountered closed coffee shops at 6:30am in other countries.

The service, while generally friendly is extremely slow. I’ve been in there alone and with one other guest and still takes 10-15 minutes for a cup of coffee. This has occurred in the middle of the day as well and is not a factor of opening. Also trying to be understanding, I assumed there were many online orders but after observation, that was not the case.

I’m Singaporean. I wasn’t expecting much. You walk into this nondescript hallway, but of course, the restaurant is this little charming gem. We had the special beef dumplings, laksa and the chicken rice. The rice is sooo on pointe, delicious it immediately took me home. The laksa was small but really well done. We had such a good time. I am so glad we went!

I was delightfully surprised that the chicken rice here was so delicious. The broth was rich, rice was flavorful, and the chicken was a little crispy and tender served with the classic scallion ginger sauce. I also got the laksa that had nice shrimp flavor. because I was sharing with a friend, they were nice enough to split the laksa into two bowls for us. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for yummy Singaporean food. It has a lovely ambiance and great drinks as well.

Poor service with no customer service. We ask for ice latte coffee, something simple and they can’t get the order right, they fill my wife cup with creamer and tones of ice (no flavor of coffee, is this not a coffee house.??We specifically ask a little ice. They refused to make us another one , we got the manager involved. After the second time around the service got worse! Still had no flavor and was practically thrown to our face.
Service was good and I the restaurant itself is very clean and well designed. I tried the salty crepes and it was a perfectly sized portion. Its not the cheapest place, but its not too bad either, specially if you get the sweat crepes which are around 100mxn.

You also get free bread which. Is a nice touch.

Fantastic little gem hidden in the Roma. The staff is courteous and knowledgeable and ready to fill up your wine glass when running low. The food is amazing but I do have a gripe about it not being very consistent. I've been here once a week for more than a month and every time the dishes are a little different. Not always for the better. Other than that, it's a great place with cute ambiance and great food.

One of the best Asian restaurants in CDMX. Singaporean food mixes recipes from Southeast Asia and China so expect fish sauce, sour flavors, and fresh herbs. They are all perfectly balanced and delicious. Highly recommend it!
