Ultimate Aesthetic Foodie Guide to CDMX🇲🇽

Eating my way through Mexico City was my favorite thing to do in the 6 months that I lived there, and I took meticulous notes. These places not only wow in food, but in atmosphere - you eat with your eyes, too, right? Here I share with you the standouts, the must visits, and the dishes I still think about to this day. Buen provecho! Included with this guide: ✨ an interactive map showing the locations ✨ dining recommendations in the neighborhoods of Condesa, Roma Norte, Juarez & Colonia Cuauhtémoc ✨ my personal notes about each restaurant

SARDE
@digitalnomadtravel
Sarde is chic yet relaxed, with a great playlist every time I've been, and some real standout dishes. The totoaba is a must try for taste and presentation, the fish & chips is hands down the best I've ever had (yes, better than the UK) the oysters are always fresh and have an inventive presentation and the Crudo de Macarela is picture perfect.

Mendl Delicatessen
@digitalnomadtravel
Whether eating outside in the covered patio or in the lush dining room, there is no bad seat in the house - if you can get one! This spot usually has a wait, so be prepared. If you are craving the comfort food of a J-Deli, this it. Must try: the lox, bagels & latkes.

Babero
@digitalnomadtravel
If an industrial chic setting with open air seating concept and a good play list is your vibe... then don't miss this spot. The food is as good as the people watching and you can't go wrong with either. The pastas, risottos & the fish are stand-outs but you can't really order wrong here,

Salón Palomilla
@digitalnomadtravel
Def make a res for this one! It's best to not know too much as a little surprise is always fun, right? Just trust that this place is really unique and you've probably never seen anything like it. It's a little hard to find from the outside but you will walk back into what looks like a restaurant but you will want to go upstairs. Recommended: the wagyu beef sliders & gyro

Taverna
@digitalnomadtravel
Stunning place, dark, moody and inviting with candlelight accents and plenty of cozy nooks. Great date night spot, a must-visit. Be sure to walk around a bit and explore the space.

Makan
@digitalnomadtravel
A Singaporean restaurant to satisfy your noodle cravings. The menu is not massive but you can't go wrong with anything you try, and don't miss the cocktails.

Pigeon
@digitalnomadtravel
I love this place for dinner any day of the week, and particularly on a weekend when they have a live band playing outside, parque rio de janiero is green and lively and the buildings surrounding it are gorgeous (def walk around before/after!) Back to the food, I still dream about the gnocci, the tortellini, the marinaded salmon...

Kiin Thai-Viet Eatery
@digitalnomadtravel
Settle in to the lush greenhouse setting, order a bottle of wine and prepare to have your tastebuds blown away with flavor. Try: the spring rolls, pork bowl and any of the curries.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi, I'm Khara 👋 I live to explore and taste my way through different cultures and cities, while working remotely and enjoying the perks of digital nomad life. When I am not out in the world, I call Los Angeles homebase and I love exploring California with my pup Roman. You're probably thinking... why should I trust her and how do I know she even has good taste!? Great questions! Here's the thing - I've already done the research, spent the time (and $$) doing the trial and error, trying the not-so-great places and eating some things that may have even gotten me sick! 🙃😣 All so YOU don't have to. 😃😜 So if you don't feel like reading countless blogs, combing through yelp reviews and pulling your hair out trying to narrow down lists on Trip Advisor, then take my advice - promise I won't steer you wrong.🍴✈️ 🌎
