Rank 9. Rosetta
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 10. Ultramarinos De Mar
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.

Fusion
A cramped Centro dining room where Norma Listman and Saqib Keval splice Indian, African, and Mexican traditions into something genuinely new: samosas stuffed with suadero, Veracruz prawns grilled hard and finished with vanilla butter, chilpachole reimagined with softshell crab. The cooking is confident and unselfconscious, more interested in flavor than fusion credentials.

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 17. Fugaz
Mexican
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.

Rank 20. Martínez
Contemporary
A small bistro named for its owner, Martínez channels Paris through Mexico City with a concise menu that moves between Mexican, French, and Japanese influences. Young and bustling, it's a place to order at the bar and watch the kitchen work while eating grilled chicken that lands.

Rank 21. CANA
Contemporary Mexican
Natural light floods a modest dining room where contemporary Mexican cooking unfolds against crisp white walls and the gentle murmur of other tables. A menu that pivots on seasonal produce—from salt cod croquetas to duck breast with farro—suggests a kitchen more interested in clarity than grandeur.
-
Rank 22. 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.

Rank 24. Sarde
Contemporary
In a Roma Norte townhouse, Sarde pursues the sea with methodical care: kampachi and mackerel cut in the Japanese style, fish and chips remade with contemporary restraint. The exposed brick dining room and compact bar suggest a place more interested in the quality of what lands on your plate than in announcing itself, which is exactly the point.

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 35. 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 36. Contramar
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 37. El Tigre Silencioso
Creative
A courtyard ringed by ancient trees opens onto a cantina where ivy climbs stone columns and the kitchen works visible behind the bar. The empanadas arrive golden and fat with smoked fish and pressed pork; the octopus stew crackles with chicharrón and menudo. Creative without artifice—a place that knows its ingredients and trusts them to speak.

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.

Rank 53. El Califa de León
Mexican
A narrow counter in San Rafael has stood for fifty years, turning out tacos built on restraint: beef filet seared thin, salted and limed, folded into fresh corn tortillas. The pork chops and ribs rotate through with the same austere logic. Two house salsas complete a philosophy that says nothing should distract from the meat and fire.

Northern-style Mexican
In a modest storefront on Calle de Colima, this taqueria executes northern Mexican technique with precision: beef barbacoa arrives juicy and deeply flavored, best ordered dorado-style in a crisped tortilla, though machacado con huevo and tempura chile rellenos prove equally assured. Diners perch at sidewalk counter or cramped indoor tables, watching the small kitchen work.

Seafood
Warehouse-high ceilings and timber salvaged from fishing boats set the stage at this Roma Norte seafood restaurant, where Chef Alejandro Zarate channels the straightforward cooking of Ensenada's fish camps. Impeccably sourced catches move through ceviches, aguachiles, and grilled octopus—dishes built for sharing, stripped of pretense, anchored by ingredient quality alone.
-
-
Rank 69. Meroma
Contemporary
At Meroma in Roma Norte, Mercedes Bernal and Rodney Cusic craft a cosmopolitan menu that moves fluently between Mexican, Italian, and Mediterranean idioms. House-made pasta, tempura zucchini flowers with parmesan, and grilled fish dressed in hoja santa and black sesame read as essays in ingredient quality and precise technique. The sleek dining room matches the ambition on the plate.

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.

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.

Rank 80. 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.
-
Rank 81. Cariñito Tacos
Southeast Asian Mexican
At a counter in Roma Norte, a taqueria that marries Cantonese technique with the taco format: confit pork belly with hoisin and sriracha in flour tortillas, crispy siu yuk with nam jim and pickled vegetables. Everything is fired to order in a kitchen you can watch, then eaten standing or outside on corn husks instead of plates—a small gesture that captures the place's refusal of expectation.
-
Rank 82. Taqueria Los Cocuyos
Mexican
At a cauldron near the front counter, a chef breaks down meat with balletic efficiency as the dining room—cavernous and perpetually packed—fills with the smell of decades-old cooking. Cabeza arrives tender enough to melt, al pastor charred and alive, both finished tableside with lime and salsa; suadero, if you arrive late enough to catch it properly braised, is reason alone to stay.

Rank 85. Ricos Tacos Toluca
Mexican
A cramped corner counter in the Centro Histórico where Toluca-style chorizo—handmade, variable—takes center stage: the obispo sausage arrives with a whisper of char, the tamarindo chorizo with diced texture and subtle sweetness. Few seats mean standing, but two decades of relocation prove the tacos are worth it.

Chef Ana Somsri Raksamran's courtyard restaurant, sheltered by bamboo and hanging vines, delivers regionally varied Thai cooking with herbs harvested to order. The gaeng kiew wan arrives bright and herbaceous; the mango sticky rice with coconut ice cream justifies the pilgrimage alone.

Rank 91. 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.

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.
