  4. A 1940s mansion in Polanco sets the stage for this multi-floor Spanish restaurant, where the kitchen takes an updated approach to the cuisine rather than a museum-piece one. The chef runs a seven-course tasting menu alongside a broader à la carte selection. Thursday through Saturday the kitchen stays open until 2 a.m., which is either a bonus or the whole point, depending on your evening.

  39. The patio at this all-day restaurant and café opens onto Plaza San Jacinto, which on Saturdays turns into one of the city's better artisan markets and supplies a steady stream of browsers to watch over a glass from the long wine list. The menu moves from enchiladas to pasta to salmon without breaking a sweat, the bread is baked in-house, and the chocolate dessert has regulars planning ahead.

  64. Rank 1063. Bar Las Brujas

    Cocktail Bar

    The building looks like a face, the peaked roof a witch's hat, the windows two wide eyes staring down Colonia Roma. The cocktail bar inside leans into all of that, with an all-women team turning Mexico's native botanicals into drinks that feel less like cocktails and more like something brewed. The crowd tends toward the architecturally curious who then find a reason to stay for a second round.

  66. Rank 1063. Café Tacobar

    Mexican Cocktail Bar

    Street tacos and cocktails share equal billing here, which tells you everything about what kind of place this is. The bar runs as a coffee shop through the day before settling into a livelier cocktail spot come nightfall, with the Roma Norte crowd packed in close enough that it genuinely feels like someone's living room, just with better drinks. Bartender Khristian de la Torre's menu is the reason to linger past the tacos.


  67. Absinthe gets the louche, ceremonial treatment it deserves at this intimate cocktail bar above natural wine spot Loup Bar in Roma Norte. The rotating menu runs to about a dozen drinks, swapped out weekly, or the bartender will just make you something. New Orleans French Quarter is the aesthetic, which sounds like a stretch until you're inside and it isn't. A Discovery from The 50 Best.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
