Los Consentidos del Barrio

Mexican · Bib

Climb the stairs to this second-story restaurant with a large dining room with wood tables and black chairs. The built-in charcoal grill keeps things toasty in the dining room, so you may want to grab a seat on the spacious patio with tall tables and chairs. The house specialty is tacos al carbon, with thinly sliced meat that is skillfully cooked on the grill, then diced. Proteins are the focus here, but vegetarian tacos aren't forsaken. Sliced poblano, nopales and mushrooms are among the top choices. Another can't-miss menu item? Their arrachera, or skirt steak, with its perfectly pink center

Charm abounds at this unassuming Condesa spot, where concrete floors and exposed brick belie warm, polished service and sophisticated cuisine. A café offering simple dishes during the day, at night the kitchen gets to really show off Chef Victor Toriz’s bold, inventive cooking. Shareable plates blend seasonal inspiration with traditional flavors, embodying an exciting yet approachable style that is thoroughly of the moment. Offal is a particular highlight, as in crispy tripe paired with Ocosingo cheese and roasted beet, or perfectly seared sweetbreads with a creamy chileatole sauce. Produce an

This small spot in La Condesa feels like a chic neighborhood place with polished concrete and white tiled walls. It saves most of its precious real estate for the kitchen though there is a wood counter with six seats along with an additional handful of seats outside. The concise menu is focused on items made from corn nixtamalized daily on-site (think tamales, tacos, chilaquiles, and enfrijoladas). There are also items to take home like the excellent tortillas—grab them warm if you are lucky. The tamal de calabaza is a freshly steamed orb of flavorful yellow masa studded with bits of tender pu

The address may no longer be a secret, but reservations at this hot spot are closely guarded (and only available by direct messaging on Instagram). The covered rooftop setting is enhanced with bountiful greenery and a lovely, relaxed vibe.Chef Ana Dolores González and a young, talented team cook with plenty of personality and a solid foundation of strong technique and good ingredients. Styled like a tasting menu and portioned for two, these dishes are impressive. Items of note include the pescado del dia, which may be grilled cod set in a luscious green mole with crushed ripe plantain, fava be

El Vilsito

Even though this famous taqueria is indeed connected to an auto repair shop and opens only at night, the setup is anything but piecemeal. There’s plenty of seating and plenty of servers, with flatscreen televisions, a roaring grill, and spinning trompos. Everyone is here for the al pastor, which features a towering stack of tender, shaved pork, sliced pineapple, and a riot of cilantro and onions. The formidable “gringas” version is deliciously messy, arriving on a flour tortilla coated with cheese.

Expendio de Maíz

Mexican · ★ Michelin

With only four communal tables, no sign, and no menu, this cash-only, sidewalk operation in Roma Norte offers a surprising experience that prioritizes food over fuss. In place of typical creature comforts, find a bustling kitchen that cooks and cooks until diners tap out. It is anyone’s guess as to what’s coming but know that heirloom corn nixtamalized and ground in house serves as the foundation for many of the dishes. Tortillas, sopes, and huaraches alike are molded and griddled to order and then dressed in a dazzling variety of seasonal ingredients and sauces. Tableside salsas pack lightnin

A pre-dinner cocktail at the moody 686 Bar upstairs is a smart way to start an evening in the capable hands of Chef Lucho Martinez. Named for his daughter Emilia, the intimate restaurant on the ground floor suits couples well, while the handsome kitchen takes a contemporary look at Mexican ingredients, many of which are seafood. Think grilled young corn served in a sauce made of coffee, browned butter and yuzu or a tostada bearing Veracruz-style fish stew topped with shaved avocado and caviar. The signature dessert celebrates all things mamey, arriving as a Swiss roll and frozen tartlet. Refin

Set on a corner in Hipódromo, you'll check in outside then climb a beautiful wooden spiral staircase to the second-floor dining room where floor-to-ceiling windows and vaulted ceiling lend a contemporary flair. A colorful art installation echoes the neighborhood's creative spirit, also seen in this kitchen's contemporary Mexican dishes. Most of the dishes are designed for sharing, making it an ideal spot for a group. Don't miss the tostada de coco, a blue corn tostada piled with avocado, chintextle, and coconut with a subtle savory flavor that is as stunning as it is surprising. For dessert, n
