The most beautiful restaurant ever, anywhere....reconnects me with my roots where the classic tranquil elegance, together with the utmost attention to details, and fine dining and wining, make of any meal at this restaurant a lifetime experience.

In the night they have live romantic music and candles in the tables. You will find excellent mexican music, and a good wine variety. Great to go with your couple.

Probably my 25th visit. Food and service are to this day outstanding. The gardens fill the air with a sweet smell that mingles so well with the marvelous atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit!

Great place to visit, service was great and the colonial style is cute. I would recomend everybody to try "Lengua de vaca a la veracruzana" . great dish. Wine list was quite good.

Many reviews rave about the beautiful courtyard and it is beautiful, double so, I imagine, if you are allowed to sit there. I... More

A new visit and same incredible experience. Excellent in all respects...from the appetizer to dessert. Not inexpensive, though. Staying in Mexico City and not paying a visit to this restaurant would simply be a sacrllege. PELUCH
