Rank 5. Castacán
Mexican
In a Roma Norte dining room where the kitchen speaks one language, the staff another, pork dominates with purpose. Cochinita pibil and lechon tacos—one slow-marinated and shredded, the other studded with crackling skin—arrive on proper tortillas with a arsenal of salsas ranging from habanero heat to sesame-tinged restraint. This is cooking that knows what it wants.

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.

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.

Rank 12. 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.

Rank 17. 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.

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 20. 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.

Innovative Mexican
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.

A rooftop in Roma Norte where smoke from the open grill drifts through the evening air.

Rank 30. Filigrana
Mexican
Chef Martha Ortiz's Roma storefront marries botanical maximalism—soaring windows, living trees, purple velvet—with cooking that treats Mexican classics as design problems. A gordita arrives crispy and refined, its shredded tongue tongue topped with fried epazote; a tamal reimagined as a golden cube of fried portobello in guajillo sauce. The pozole brujo, meanwhile, lets its broth do the talking.

Rank 32. 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 33. MeroToro
Baja Mexican
A tree-lined corner in Condesa where Chef Jair Téllez plates the straightforward pleasures of Baja—ceviche tostadas, soft-shell crab, braised oxtail—in a dining room whose contemporary warmth matches its ambition. The cooking asks nothing of you but attention, and gives back clarity.

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.

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.

Rank 46. 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.

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.

Rank 53. Bella Aurora
Contemporary Italian
A pink-fronted Roman-style trattoria in Roma Norte, Bella Aurora moves gracefully from morning pastries through lunch and dinner without fuss or affectation. Octopus arrives lightly pickled with potato, while conchiglie with tuna ragù, chili, and Kalamata olives shows genuine care in execution. The tiramisu alone justifies lingering over dessert.
-
-
-
Rank 56. Raíz
Contemporary Mexican
A modest storefront on a residential street conceals cooking that takes corn and its companions seriously—aguachile arrives in cuttlefish ink broth, tostadas arrive golden and precise, and a whole fish emerges with skin crackling like parchment. The kitchen moves between playful (pickled onions on a plantain molote) and restrained, each plate a small argument about what Mexican food can be.

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 59. 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 61. Taquería Orinoco
Late-Night Mexican
-
Rank 62. Caracol de Mar
Mexican
A spiral staircase rises to soaring windows and vaulted ceilings where seafood and contemporary Mexican cooking meet casual group dining. The tostada de coco—blue corn, avocado, chintextle, coconut—balances sweet and savory with architectural precision; chocolate tamale with hoja santa ice cream closes the meal with equal confidence. Hipódromo's creative energy is felt here as much as tasted.
-
Rank 63. Siembra Tortillería
Modern Mexican
A sidewalk operation in Polanco where Karina Mejía and Israel Montero turn heirloom corn tortillas into vehicles for charred fish al pastor and arrachera crowned with crispy potatoes. The kitchen moves fast and portions run generous, which explains why the counter stays crowded and the tacos disappear quickly.

-
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.

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.

Near the National Museum of Anthropology, a small bistro serves grilled sardines with Mediterranean accent and pasta brightened by Mexican ingredients, all in a narrow room where the bar offers views of the kitchen's choreography. Reservations essential.

Rank 100. Molino "El Pujol"
Mexican
A sliver of a room in La Condesa devoted almost entirely to kitchen, where corn is nixtamalized daily and transformed into tamales, tacos, and chilaquiles with quiet precision. The tamal de calabaza arrives as a steamed bundle of yellow masa studded with pumpkin, accompanied by a small salad dressed with candied seeds—the kind of dish that justifies a neighborhood's faith in a place.
