The best restaurants in Mexico City, according to the experts: The 50, Michelin Guide, and AAA have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Quintonil comes out on top.
More Less
Pujol and Rosetta hold the next two places. MexBest shows up on more of this list than any other guide, with MB100 next.
-
Rank 1. Quintonil
New-wave Mexican
A quiet facade on a Polanco side street opens into a room of blond wood, vine-draped walls, and Mexican art, where the tasting menu reads like a field guide to ingredients most kitchens ignore. Chef Jorge Vallejo, who came up through Noma and Pujol, holds two Michelin stars and a spot at number three on the World's 50 Best list. Indigenous corn, insects, herbs, and wild mushrooms arrive in compositions that feel personal rather than performative.

Rank 2. Pujol
Mexican
The mole madre has been on the menu for years, darkening and deepening as new batches are folded into the old, and by now it's less a sauce than a living archive. Enrique Olvera's Polanco dining room holds two Michelin stars and a spot on the World's 50 Best, and a seasonal tasting menu threads through contemporary Mexican cooking with the kind of confidence that doesn't need to announce itself. The room is sleek and buzzy, servers in sharp black.

Rank 2. Rosetta
Mexican
Elena Reygadas swapped English literature for cooking, and the curriculum shows: Rosetta is a creative Mexican restaurant where cabbage stands in for tortillas and pistachio does the work of pumpkin seeds, dishes that read like close readings of a tradition rather than departures from it. The room fills fast with people who trust the kitchen to do something worth thinking about. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on the World's 50 Best list.

Rank 4. Máximo Bistrot
French-influenced Mexican
Soaring ceilings and white brick hold onto the building's industrial past while the room itself feels effortlessly cool, which is the Roma Norte way. Máximo is a fine dining restaurant where French technique bends toward Mexican ingredients and hyper-seasonality, sourced by the team from producers they've been visiting for years. Dishes shift constantly, desserts lean savory, and the whole thing moves at a pace that assumes you're staying a while. It holds a Michelin star and a spot on Latin America's 50 Best list.

Rank 5. Em
Contemporary Mexican
Named for the chef's daughter, this intimate fine dining room on a quiet Roma Norte street holds a Michelin star and a spot on Latin America's 50 Best list. The kitchen takes Mexican ingredients, heavy on seafood, somewhere unexpected: grilled young corn in coffee and yuzu butter, caviar over Veracruz fish stew. Upstairs, the 686 Bar is a perfectly reasonable excuse to linger before you sit down.

Rank 5. Maizajo
Corn-Centric Mexican
Salmon-tiled from floor to ceiling, Maizajo is a tortillería, taquería, and full sit-down restaurant stacked across two floors in Condesa. Downstairs, fresh tortillas in regional corn varieties anchor tacos you dress at the salsa bar; upstairs, the kitchen goes further with tamales, mole, and grilled meats on proper plates. Chef Santiago Muñoz has spent years recovering heirloom corn varieties, and the tortillas here make that case quietly but clearly.

Rank 7. Esquina Común
Mexican
Reservations here are handled exclusively through Instagram DMs, which should tell you something about the kind of place this is before you've even arrived. Esquina Común is a Michelin-starred tasting menu spot on a covered rooftop in Condesa, draped in greenery and run by a young team with a sharp sense of technique. The menu leans into Mexican tradition and the portions are sized for sharing, which keeps the table convivial.

Mexican
The samosas here are filled with suadero, which tells you everything about what Norma Listman and Saqib Keval are doing at this Michelin-starred restaurant in Centro. African, Indian, and Mexican cooking converge without any one tradition elbowing the others aside. Veracruz prawns arrive aggressively grilled with vanilla butter; the table fills fast with people who came specifically for exactly this.

Rank 7. Sud 777
Mexican
Tucked into the ritzy Pedregal neighborhood, Sud 777 is a sprawling Mexican restaurant with lofted ceilings, dark wood, and earthy tones that suggest money without shouting about it. Edgar Núñez holds a Michelin star here, running both a tasting menu and a serious à la carte. The suckling pig finished pibil-style, served with house tortillas for DIY tacos, is the dish regulars rearrange their evenings around.

Rank 10. Jowong
Korean
Seafoam-green banquettes and ash-blonde wood give this Korean restaurant in Condesa the look of somewhere that knows exactly what it's doing. The menu is tight and confident, moving from kimchi and smashed cucumbers through a prime-rib barbecue spread that takes over the table, with warm gimbap and a banana cake at the end that looks like it belongs in a magazine. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and it carries the distinction quietly.

Rank 10. Voraz
Mexican
A former auto shop in Roma Sur now runs on achiote-seasoned pig ears, oyster gorditas, and savoury churros. Voraz calls itself a gastro-cantina, which means the menu ranges wide, the room runs loud, and the chef, a NOMA and Fäviken alumnus, describes the whole experience as "delicious but organised chaos." Condé Nast Traveler named it among the best new restaurants in the world in 2024. Come ready to talk to strangers.

Rank 12. Fugaz
Mexican
A bright green facade on a Roma Norte corner marks this low-key cafe, where the menu changes weekly and the kitchen leans on vegetables and whatever fish looked good that morning. The chef's background runs through Buenos Aires, Europe, and New York, and a quiet Mediterranean note runs through the Mexican cooking. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand. Bring a book, bring your mom, or bring a Tinder date you may need to escape.

Rank 12. Nicos
Mexican
An old-school institution in Claveria that started, as the story goes, when a customer spotted the staff eating something too good to keep off a menu. Now the founder's son runs the kitchen, turning out a tasting menu of classic Mexican cooking in a room that feels like a neighborhood restaurant that just happens to have been packed for generations. Warm, unhurried, and a long way from the tourist trail.

Rank 12. Restaurante El Cardenal
Mexican
Roaming musicians and big families dressed up for celebrations set the tone at this grand, old-school Mexican restaurant in the Centro Histórico. The kitchen runs its own ranch, so anything dairy-forward carries its weight, and the seasonal menu leans into ingredients like huitlacoche that most restaurants never bother with. Formal without being stiff, the kind of place where lunch can quietly become the whole afternoon.

Rank 15. Gaba
Innovative Mexican
Concrete floors and exposed brick in Condesa's Hipódromo neighborhood, but the kitchen is more ambitious than the room lets on. Gaba runs as a casual café by day, then pivots at night into something sharper, with Chef Victor Toriz sending out inventive Mexican small plates built around offal, seafood, and produce handled with real confidence. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, and the space is never empty.

Rank 15. LINA
Contemporary Mexican
An arched door on a Roma Norte side street opens into a warm corridor of blond wood, white walls, and pendant lighting, with an open kitchen built around a wood-fire grill. LINA is an elegant but unstuffy contemporary Mexican seafood restaurant where the menu follows what local farmers are actually growing, and the chef's careful, well-traveled hand shows in things like beautifully charred squash with smoky pine nut sauce. The crowd dresses up just enough to feel like the room deserves it.

Rank 15. Martínez
European
A bistro-sized room in Roma Norte where the kitchen is basically the bar, so ordering a drink comes with a front-row view of the line. Martínez is a contemporary restaurant drawing loose inspiration from French bistro energy filtered through Mexican and Japanese touches, the kind of menu that's short enough to read in one go. Named Mexico's Best New Restaurant in 2023, it fills early and stays loud.

Mexican
The spinning trompos and roaring grill share a parking lot with an auto repair shop, which tells you most of what you need to know about this famous late-night taqueria. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand and everyone comes for the al pastor, shaved pork with pineapple stacked improbably high. Order the gringa on a flour tortilla with melted cheese if you don't mind getting your hands involved.

Sheep and goat wrapped in maguey leaves, buried underground with coals, and slow-roasted overnight in Hidalgo state, then trucked into Roma Sur every weekend. This two-story barbacoa shop is only open Friday through Sunday, which concentrates the crowd accordingly. The sturdy wooden tables and colorful runners make it relatively dressy by barbacoa standards, which is to say you won't be eating off a folding table. Order by weight and start with the consommé.

Rank 21. Expendio de Maíz
Mexican
Four communal tables, no sign, no menu, cash only, and a Michelin star. The math at this Roma Norte sidewalk spot is its own argument. The kitchen runs on heirloom corn nixtamalized and ground in house, and whatever lands in front of you, tortillas or huaraches or sopes, gets shaped and griddled to order before disappearing under seasonal sauces. The tableside salsas arrive with serious intent. No reservations, and the waitlist moves at its own pace.

Contemporary Mediterranean
A small bar spills onto Calle de Colima at street level, and you're meant to linger there with a drink before heading upstairs to the dining room, which is cozy, neutral-toned, and quietly confident. The husband-and-wife team behind Meroma keeps the menu seasonal and the sourcing deliberate, turning out the kind of elegant, composed plates that make Roma Norte feel like it's doing something right. An old-school institution this is not, but it eats like one.

A sliver of a room in Roma Norte, all dark wood and candlelight, with just enough tables that you'll feel like you got in on something. Vigneron is a contemporary French restaurant where the menu stays short and the wine list, mostly European, runs long. The Michelin Guide gave it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks: this is the kind of cooking that shows off without announcing itself. Share everything you can.

Bamboo towers over the courtyard at this Thai restaurant in Roma Norte, where woven pendants and trailing vines make the setting feel genuinely removed from the street outside. Chef Somsri Raksamran tends her own herb garden and harvests to order, which shows in the green curry's brightness. The menu covers Thailand's northeast, central plains, and south, and holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand for the trouble.

Spanish
This Spanish taberna skips the dark wood and hanging hams for bright white walls and enough air to linger for hours. It doubles as a market, and much of what ends up on the plate is shipped in from Spain. The house vermouth comes on tap, the arroz meloso arrives rich and creamy, and the '80s and '90s Spanish pop will have you inventing a Eurail trip you never took.

A tree-lined street in Condesa, a terrace made for lingering, and a menu that treats Baja California's coastal larder as a serious argument for Mexican fine dining. Chef Jair Téllez keeps the cooking direct, balancing seafood and meat without fuss. The room is contemporary but warm enough that the tasting menu doesn't feel like homework.

Northern Mexican
The sundeck at the back of this Roma Norte restaurant hints at something relaxed, but the cooking is quietly serious. The team behind Propio trained at Quintonil and Eleven Madison Park, and the menu is rooted in Northern Mexican tradition without feeling like a history lesson. The room is midcentury-handsome, reservations fill up fast, and the MB100 named them Emerging Chefs of the Year in 2024. Book ahead.

Rank 34. El Califa de León
Mexican
A Michelin-starred taqueria where there's no room to sit, which seems about right. The counter fits a handful of people standing, the menu fits on a napkin, and the Gaonera taco, thinly sliced beef filet seared with salt and lime on a fresh corn tortilla, is the reason everyone's there. The two house salsas handle the rest. An old-school institution in San Rafael that has exactly one thing to prove, and keeps proving it.

Red sauce and thin-crust pizza in the Hipódromo, from the chef behind Cana and a former beverage lead from Enrique Olvera's orbit. Gia is a casual Italian American restaurant doing the New York red-sauce joint thing with enough conviction that it doesn't feel like a tribute act. Saucy pastas, focaccia, meatballs, a green goddess salad buried in Parmigiano, and a pizza list that runs from pepperoni to mortadella.

Huichol embroidery, Puebla talavera tiles, and mirrors from Tlayacapan cover the walls of this sit-down Mexican restaurant in the Centro Histórico, the remnants of an old fountain still standing in the entrance hall.

The signature beef broth soup has been on the menu forever, and no one is changing it. This old-school cantina on Chapultepec runs on mahogany paneling, power-lunch tequila rounds, and formal family gatherings that have probably occupied the same table for decades. The menu reads like a time capsule of midcentury Mexican dining, heavy on braised tongue, hearts of palm, and salt-baked fish. Dress up; the room expects it.

Galea is a small, easygoing Italian restaurant with a Michelin Bib Gourmand, where the menu stays focused and the pasta comes in half portions so you can order two without the guilt.

Oaxacan
Candles strung through courtyard trees and a retractable roof overhead put the room somewhere between outside and ceremony before you've ordered a thing. Azul is a Mexican restaurant where the chef has spent a career documenting traditional recipes, and the menu reads like that research made edible: cochinita pibil, black mole from Oaxaca, classic guacamole. No experimental flourishes, no modernist detours, just regional comfort food cooked straight.

Rank 46. La Barra de Fran
Spanish
A bull's head greets you at the door, which is one way to make the menu clear before you've even sat down. This is a Spanish tapas bar in Polanco, modeled on the kind of place in Madrid where nobody eats alone and the anchovies come on toast with oil and tomato because they don't need to be anything more complicated than that. Classic patatas bravas, gambas al ajillo, flan, everything sized for the table.

Rank 72. Comal Oculto
Mexican
Terracotta walls and communal tables set the tone at this casual all-day Mexican restaurant in San Miguel Chapultepec, where the comal does most of the heavy lifting. Gorditas, flautas, chilaquiles, enmoladas, the menu reads like a greatest-hits of comforting classics cooked with care. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand. Come weekend brunch, a wait is part of the deal.

Rank 75. Caracol de Mar
Mexican
A blue corn tostada piled with avocado, chintextle, and coconut is the dish that tells you what kind of seafood restaurant this is: creative, coastal, not remotely predictable. The second-floor dining room in Hipódromo sits behind floor-to-ceiling windows under a vaulted ceiling, with a colorful art installation doing most of the decorating. The menu is built for sharing, and the Michelin Bib Gourmand keeps it approachable on the bill.

Rank 75. La Once Mil
Mexican
Complimentary salsas and hand-cut crisps land on the table the moment you sit down, which softens the blow of the wait outside, often close to an hour. This upscale taquería in wealthy Las Lomas fills fast and takes no reservations, so arrive with patience and leave the diet at home. The tacos lean rich, truffled mushrooms, suckling pig, Black Angus seared on a trompo spit, and the music is loud enough that nobody's talking about the bill.
