Rank 3. PLONK
Mexican Wine Bar
In La Condesa, a counter spirals around a tree—the kind of detail that sets the mood before you taste anything. Chef Flor Camorlinga's dishes fuse Mexican and Asian sensibilities: shrimp udon with gochujang and cheddar, bone marrow with kimchi and cotija. The doradito's crisp blue corn and raw fish sing against smoky salsa; natural wines complete the picture.

Rank 4. Em
Contemporary Mexican
An intimate ground-floor room where Chef Lucho Martinez treats Mexican seafood and produce with contemporary refinement: young corn grilled and dressed in coffee-browned butter and yuzu, a tostada layered with Veracruz fish stew and caviar, a mamey dessert composed as Swiss roll and frozen tartlet. Bold flavors arrive with precision, the kind of cooking that rewards a quiet evening for two.

Baja Mexican

Creative Mexican
Elena Reygadas's Rosetta in Roma Norte draws crowds craving Mexican cooking remade through global technique—cabbage tacos with pistachio puree and a sweet potato tamal with buttermilk sauce exemplify her appetite for unlikely flavor pairings. Dishes arrive meant for sharing, each one a small argument about what Mexican food could become.

Rank 22. Expendio de Maíz
Mexican
A cramped sidewalk kitchen in Roma Norte where heirloom corn, nixtamalized in-house, becomes tortillas and sopes molded to order and dressed with seasonal ingredients and tableside salsas that crackle with heat. Four communal tables, no menu, cash only, and a waitlist that forms immediately—a place where the cook decides what you eat, and you're better for it.
-
Rank 23. Baldío
Mexican
Chef Max MacLean's zero-waste kitchen in Condesa sources from chinampas farms and local fisheries, purifies its own water, and prints on recycled corn husks—but the cooking is what commands attention. Fluke crudo arrives shingled with jicama and star fruit in leche de tigre; heirloom tomatoes meet sikil pak, a Yucatán sauce of toasted pepitas and charred chiles.

Seafood
A busy Roma street hosts this seafood-focused restaurant where chef Gabriela Cámara has maintained momentum since 1998. Raw scallop tostadas in salsa macha and pulpo a la Gallega—octopus with potato, olive oil, paprika—set the table before pescado a talla, its dual-sided spice rubs marking the kitchen's signature approach. The dessert trolley rounds out a meal that demands reservations.

Rank 27. El Jarocho
Mexican
A former tortillería in Roma Norte where three generations have perfected the guisado taco—slow-cooked proteins and vegetables in mole-dark sauces, the pork flank with morita chile particularly worth the visit. Fresh tortillas arrive at the table still warm, the room spare and purposeful, service unhurried.
-
Rank 28. Máximo
French-influenced Mexican
Chef Eduardo Garcia's French-inflected Mexican cooking unfolds in a soaring Roma Norte space of white brick and tile, where a tasting menu pivots between caviar-topped beet tartare and abalone tostada with restraint and creativity. Desserts like black truffle ice cream and caviar flan signal a kitchen unafraid of savory flourishes.

Rank 38. Maizajo
Mexican
Upstairs from a standing-room taqueria, Maizajo's dining room pairs industrial chic—I-beams and rebar furniture—with Santiago Muñoz Moctezuma's precise corn cookery, announced by house tostadas and habanero salsa. A blue corn tostada crowned with tuna and black sesame oil sits alongside a poblano tamal sweet with achiote and stewed greens, each plate revealing the grammar of the kernel.

International
An open kitchen in Roma Norte hums with the restless energy of a young brigade plating contemporary dishes that drift between continents—crispy prawns lacquered with citrus, charcoal-grilled bass yielding to yuzu beurre blanc. The warm service and stylish room suggest a kitchen that knows its ambitions and executes them without fanfare.
-
Rank 42. Tacos Hola El Güero
Mexican
At this counter-service taqueria open since 1968, stewed fillings simmer in ceramic pots—choose the picadillo with its seasoned ground meat and potatoes, or chorizo con papa on larger tortillas—and assemble your order with salsa, cotija, and avocado at a handful of outdoor tables in Condesa.
-
-
Rank 44. LINA
Contemporary Mexican
Chef Mariana Villegas Martínez works an open kitchen in this Roma Norte seafront, where contemporary Mexican cooking emerges from seasonal ingredients and careful technique rather than flourish. A charred squash with smoky pine nut sauce and chicken with roasted peaches and mole coloradito show the thoughtfulness beneath the straightforward plating. Warmth runs through both the room and the plate.

Fugaz trades theatricality for restraint: a bright-green storefront in Roma Norte where Chef Giuseppe Lacorazza builds dishes from a Mediterranean foundation and Mexican soil, heavy on vegetables. Raw fish meets white beans and almond-brown butter puree; gnudi float in onion broth. A cafe that thinks like a serious kitchen.

A Condesa café that transforms at night: bare concrete and brick give way to Chef Victor Toriz's inventive cooking, where crispy tripe meets Ocosingo cheese and roasted beet, sweetbreads nestle into chileatole cream. Seasonal plates arrive in sharable portions, bold yet approachable, paired with house cocktails and a discerning wine list—the formula of a place that knows how to stay full.

Seafood
A stainless-steel corner counter in Roma Norte where Chef Lucho Martinez's seafood menu spans raw preparations and pastas, anchored by a blue corn tostada with shrimp and a clam chowder that demands every spoonful. The lobster roll, when it appears, tastes like the work of someone who understands that restraint and quality catch make the argument better than flourish.

This is cooking that knows what it wants.

Mexican
A quiet, multilevel room of pale wood and clean lines in Roma Norte where Chef Oswaldo Oliva channels his Spanish past through a single seasonal tasting menu that borrows from Mexico but roams further afield—fried chilies stuffed with eggplant and blue cheese, baby corn in cream with caviar. The counter seat, overlooking an immaculate kitchen, is where the evening reveals itself most clearly.
-
Rank 78. Tacos Del Valle
Mexican
A retro diner setup of bar stools and mirrors frames this Roma Norte taqueria's straightforward mission: meat cooked on the trompo, spun near open flame until charred outside and tender within, then plated on corn tortillas for you to dress with three salsas in squeeze bottles. Other tacos arrive more elaborately garnished, but the stripped-down versions reveal the craft.

Mexican
A standing-room operation in Roma Sur that's been grilling meat over charcoal since 1965, with nothing but metal shelving for a counter and no concession to comfort. The bistec arrives medium-well with a whisper of smoke, the costilla paper-thin and cooked through, and the al pastor tacos arrive in that perfect state where technique becomes invisible.
-
Rank 88. Sartoria
Italian
Sartoria's industrial space fills nightly with young couples drawn to carefully plated Italian pastas, especially delicate tortellacci crowned with creamy burrata. The modest menu prizes ingredient quality over ambition, finishing reliably with tiramisu.
-
Rank 89. La 89
Mexican
A narrow taquería on a Roma Norte side street where carne asada hits the grill to order, emerging with a dark crust and restrained seasoning. Quesabirria arrives crisp-edged and tender, the consommé optional but welcome; tortas are built with equal care on bread that tastes like it matters. Plastic stools and a no-frills room mean you're here for the work, not the comfort.
-
-
Rank 91. Vigneron
Contemporary French
A sliver of a room in Roma Norte where chef Aram Abisahi's French-inflected cooking—roasted carrots with stracciatella, crispy polenta with stone crab—rewards shared plates and close attention. The wine list sprawls unexpectedly wide for such an intimate, dark space.
-
Rank 92. Galea
Italian
A corner room lined in warm wood, softened by terra-cotta light and the murmur of neighborhood regulars. Galea's Italian menu stays lean—focaccia, handmade pastas offered in half portions, a daily fish in beurre blanc—but each dish carries intention. The panna cotta arrives with a subtle Mexican touch, a small gesture that defines the place: rooted in tradition, alert to where it is.

Contemporary Mexican
The modest street entrance opens onto an inland garden: tall cacti frame a fish-stocked pond, and the kitchen moves between ceviches—serrano and pistachio with shrimp—and pasta studded with blue crab and anchovy breadcrumb. Dessert takes strange turns, as when Kalamata olives crash the crème brûlée. A place where strangers feel like insiders.
-
Rank 98. Pargot
Mexican
In a spare Roma Norte dining room, Chef Alexis Ayala works from a tightly edited menu that moves from delicate to substantial with the precision of a controlled argument. Baja fish arrives as kebbe crudo under grasshopper XO sauce; leeks transform into pâté on tostadas dusted with chili ash. The cooking is rooted in Mexico but restless, always reaching for the next small revelation.
-
-
Rank 100. Aleli Rooftop
Mexican
A rooftop in Roma Norte where smoke from the open grill drifts through the evening air. Aleli keeps its traditional Mexican menu focused—brocheta de camarón, zarandeado fish, charred potato bread—letting quality ingredients and careful technique speak. Perch at the bar to watch the cook work, order a cocktail, and find yourself pleased by both the food and what you're paying for it.
