The Best Restaurants in Mexico City, by the Record

  1. A walk-up tamale shop on a quiet Roma Sur corner that sells out most mornings before the city has properly woken up. The masa is unusually light, and the roster runs from squash blossom with cheese to pork loin with olives to a sweet fig and cream cheese version that has no business being that good at 8 a.m. A handful of sidewalk tables for those who can't wait, but most people just grab and go, fast.


  2. Rank 177. Taquería Orinoco

    Late-Night Mexican


  3. Rank 177. Tenampa

    Mexican


  4. Rank 177. Tetetlán

    Mexican


  5. Rank 177. The Lamb

    British


  6. Rank 177. Vacaciones

    Italian





























  7. Rank 209. La Onda

    Mexican



















  8. Rank 209. Taquería Orinoco

    Late-Night Mexican








  9. Rank 258. Malcriado

    Mediterranean Mexican

    The name translates to "badly raised," which tells you something about the attitude. Malcriado runs as a cafe through the morning and a natural wine bar by evening, taking both halves seriously enough that neither reads as the excuse for the other. The team cups the beans twice daily, the coffee comes from Chiapas, and the kitchen carries a Mediterranean sensibility built on Mexican ingredients. Tables spill onto Atlixco, fully absorbed into Condesa's sidewalk rhythm.



  10. Rank 261. 25dos

    Contemporary Mexican

          Best Place Score
