Interesting and tasty ceviche , I got it without the mayo chili sauce and it was great! The waiters were really so nice and very professional - they made the meal!

GregWasThere

Amazing restaurant . Got the Beet root salade , the broccolinis , parpadelles with Rabbit and Calamaris salt wasps and everything was amazing. The No Sapiens wine and Migrante were both really good

Rania

We tried nearly every dish. They’re beautifully presented & tastes incredible. Fresh ingredients . Not too salty, creamy or heavy. It’s also easier to get reservations . Win win

Kandu Tapia

The original recipes from Baja now revisited in an excellent way. Every piece of pork , beef or octopus has lots of flavor and it's really worth it. It is better if you reserve ; it could be crowded .

Avin Narasimhan

An ambitious menu, not for faint of heart (beef tongue and octopus galore). But awesome space and everything is delicious. Get the chicken if you're looking for a tasty but safe out (i did)

Erik Michielsen

Get a bunch of dishes to share. 6 dishes for two people plus dessert was right for us. The fig dessert with beets , tomatoes and yogurt is outstanding.

Fadia Kader

Super chic - yet super reasonably priced! Get the risotto with sea urchin and fried chicken skin . Try the braised jack fish . Have the server recommend something for you - enjoy!

Jordan M

Get the beet salad , the risotto , and the lamb . ????

Ale Estrada

Loved it! The pig jaw is terrific, make sure to save room for dessert . If they have the panna cotta you will be amazed!!!!

Javier Romero

Creative, surprising, original, unexpected mix of sea food and pork-beef! Nice, almost risky selection of Mexican wines !!!

Brenda Ciuk

Great place for seafood and fish in Mexico! Most ingredients are brought from the Baja peninsula, including really good wine .

Matteo P.

It looks at bit cheap but the food is just great. One of the best octopus I ever had

Very good food from Baja California , great service and beautiful place

Gwen Eamer

Great modern Mexican food with a focus on Baja California .

Good food overpriced and overrated. Be ready to spend at least 1000 pesos in a good meal plus drinks.

Pål Hauff Hvattum

contemporary ceviche

Andres Carral Cuevas

Great Ambiance, excellent food. I suggest you order in "the middle" for everyone to share.

Jesús Herrera

Todo, las entradas, sobre todo siempre tienen una de temporada. La quijada de cerdo , el cerdo ibérico , el cordero , el tiradito . En general las especialidades son los mariscos fríos . La carta de@vinos!

Carolina Barba

No te puedes perder la ensalada tibia de pulpo , el risotto de tuétano , el pastelito de almendra con tapioca y helado de plátano y la panna cotta con frutos rojos ... Exquisito todo!!!

Raul

Buena experiencia. Propuesta consistente. De entrada pedí tostadas de ceviche “deliciosas”, de fuerte la costilla que “me decepcionó”, postre mil hojas de mamey “wow”, remembranza de mi infancia. 9/10

Alfonso Todd

Toda la carta se ve bien, la ensalada de tomates y la tostada de pescado y jaiba suave no tienen comparación. Muy buen servicio y buenas opciones de vinos mexicanos - un Nebbiolo excelente.

Glitz Latinoamérica

El chef Jair Téllez lleva la cocina bajacaliforniana a un concepto urbano en pleno México City. Carta breve y sencilla pero muy rica. Probar: quijada de puerco con lentejas braseadas y huevo pochado .

Karla Palomera

Excelente lugar buenos vinos y excelente comida no puede dejar de probar la tostada de oreja es exquisita además de la quijada de cerdo ibérico sobre salsa tatemada y huevo pochado .

Mafer Sierra Bustamante

El brownie con helado de hoja santa muy rico, aunque la sorpresa fue la tabla de quesos con mantequilla de limón y compota de guayaba DELICIOSO... Y el must de siempre el risotto de tuétano <3

Caterina Brocchi

Adoro que cambien el menu regularmente. Todos los platillos tienen un toque muy particular. Me encantan sus platillos con erizo . Consejo pizco sour para acompañar. No economico peró lo vale todo.

Monica Rebolledo

El atún en aguachile buenísimo, el arroz negro ) y la ventrasca de atún en la top list... Terminando con el chocolate suave con helado de pan que le dan el toque ! ????????

Alheli Ponce

Uno de los imperdibles de CDMX, todo esta delicioso; la carta tiene cuatro tiempos. Les recomiendo pidan al centro para compartir y prueben mas delicias del menú.

Melissa Romero

Reserven porque se llena. Pidan las tostadas, el cordero o los ravioles , tercer tiempo la lengua es obligatoria sí no, no fueron. El panacotta trae helado de fresa y cardamomo exquisito.

Marta Pallares

Cualquier risotto , las alcachofas con hongos salteadas con verdolagas , cordero crujiente y suave. Un favorito de entre los clásicos condeseros al que no se le ha subido a la cabeza.

Isa Hrnndz

Festejé mi cumpleaños degustando ceviche de pescado , lengüa de res y camarones , con cerveza artesanal y granizado de jamaica con sorbete de mandarina y sal de gusano , el cual es una exquisitez!!

Jose Vazquez

TODO! Vino por copeo excelente! La ensalada tibia de pulpo , buenaza, de segundo, por favor pide el pecho de cerdo con soya . De tercero, la lengua de res es buena pero hay mejores cosas. Enjoy!!

Denis Figueroa

El tratará de atún está delicioso. Prueben la quijada y el cordero . Dos platillos por persona! La crema Catalana y plátano es el mejor postre

Karla Donjuan

Segunda oportunidad y aprueba con honores :) esperaba la oferta de vino mexicano mas extensa ???? el pan perfecto, ensalada de brocolines y pasta con centolla ????

Natalia Ortiz

El arroz negro delicioso, el sashimi de callo de hacha , el tercer tiempo de cordero y el atún muy rico todo!:-) tragos: negroni y mezcal y jamaica
