“We stopped in for a quick drink and made that clear when we were seated. After waiting 30 minutes with no water, no drinks, and no follow-up — despite the restaurant not being busy — we ended up leaving. Very disappointing service and not a place I would recommend to tourists.”

“What a gem! They have a great selection of wines, several varieties of appetizers, main dishes and lots of deserts. Plus, 80% of the menu is naturally gluten-free! I’m celiac, so I had an incredible time there. The food is well priced, we ate in 3 people and spent around MXN 1800 pesos. Waiters are very polite, well informed, happy and resourceful. I really enjoyed the experience. In regard to the food taste, I would say is quite good. However, the desert was definitely the best moment of the night. The “Torta Santiago” was absolutely divine!”

“Our experience here was outstanding! We had the oysters rasurados and they are a must. We had a paella mixta for two and I simply think is the best we had ever have. They can accommodate classic cocktails even if they are not in the menu. Everyone here is very welcoming but Enrique, our waiter was just above and beyond with attentiveness and on point recommendations.”

“A very Spanish joint in Mexico City. The decor is very basque, cozy and comfortable. The service is mexican in the sense that they treat you like a king without overwhelming you. You’re not finished raising your hand and they are already there for you. I got the oysters “rasurados”, the best I’ve had in years (a very Mexican recipe and not Spanish, but worth trying if you haven’t). The caldo de cola de res or oxtail broth is comfort food at its best. I also recommend the fish soup. The chuletón de vaca vieja is a good option to share with 2 or even 3 if you had enough appetisers. For dessert the tarta santiago is very well made and comes with a deli ice cream. One of the top 3 Spanish restaurants in Polanco if not the best.”

“The food and ambiance were fantastic. Not too noisy. Appetizers were creative and tasty. Salt cod balls and whole fish were cooked perfectly. The cheesecake with passion fruit sauce capped a memorable meal. This crab roll had cucumber and avocado.”

“One of my favourite Mexico City experiences. The staff were friendly and the food was outstanding! Everything we ordered was an out of body experience: we ordered the black squid ink croquettes, the jamón ibérico bellota, the octopus with squid ink rice and shishito peppers. I couldn’t choose just one fav!”

“I had the sinfull luxury of dinning twice on my short trip to Mexico City in this superb palace of taste. Chef Pablo San Roman created our menu, surf and turf if you will, a magical experience without a doubt that will be impossible to beat anytime soon. Small comfy minimalist space, but warm and laid back somehow. Let Pablo do his thing, sit back, relax and enjoy thouroughly.”

“If you are in the area, look no further for this is an absolute culinary experience! From the cool presentation, to taste, everything was right on point. The atmosphere is great, lots of open space, ideal for groups or large families. And the staff is friendly and helpful.”
