Amazing dinner and drinks. The aguachile was a standout. Flight was delayed. Glad this place was open later. Such a great space. Sat upstairs near the bar area.

Lovely green and natural yet sophisticated interiors perfect for a solo meal, date or group dinner. Great music and good vibes. The service was amazing and the food was authentic, adventurous, and delicious. Spanish is not required, but always appreciated. Incredible selection of fresh foods and drinks.. best tacos I’ve had yet. Seriously. Highly, highly recommend. Do not miss.

Cannot even explain how good this place is! My girls and I were visiting CDMX from California, for the weekend and decided on this place for Sunday brunch because they have unlimited mimosas & bellinis. LET ME TELL YOU, these mimosas were made out of FRESH OJ!!! I was so impressed. The food was not only aesthetically pleasing, it was just as delicious. We had ARMANDO as our waiter, and he did a phenomenal job. He never let us have an empty glass, and we definitely appreciated that. Everyone else, from kitchen staff to the young ladies maintaining the restrooms did an amazing job too. And lastly, this place is so boho chic, we took a million pictures in there, and they didn’t mind. Definitely IG worthy. IG @duh_lila

We had the most wonderful meal here with our server Rodrigo. He was so patient with our broken Spanish and recommended so many delicious dishes. We will remember this meal for a long because of the great atmosphere, great service, and great food.

I miss - a lot! - the arroz caldoso which has been one of the best ones I have tried so far. However, new risotto with shrimps is perfection too. I also recommend Tacos Gobernador (Cheese Shrimps Spicy ). Overall, menu tastes fantastic and has different options, mostly sea food. Drinks are great as well as the atmosphere, you feel transported to the beach.

Fabulous restaurant. Helena had a great vibe, top notch service, and every dish we had was delicious. Our waiter, George, took amazing care of us. I’d recommend this place to anyone visiting CDMX.

Best restaurant in CDMX hands down! Went on a Friday night and everything was perfect. Lively music played by a live DJ. The vibe and ambiance was perfect. The drinks were delicious and the server was attentive to every need. The food was to die for. Pork Belly Tacos, New York Strip, Pulpo, Anana, Old Fashioned, and Cheesecake

I came, I ate, I was happy. I loved walking into this restaurant. The decor, the music, the colors were all cohesive and added to the vibe and energy. My waitress was extremely pleasant and had great suggestions. I would highly recommend you add this to your top 10 places to eat. I will be back.
