Listed as a top 50 bar in the world, it definitely needs a reservation to avoid long wait times. The drink menu was interesting but nothing really stood out as top tier here. The cocktails were good but often times felt more like a fruit juice than a cocktail.

A speakeasy with live music that is kind of in its own part of Mexico City. I was a little worried about the area when walking to it, but once inside it large and completely safe. Perhaps get a taxi to drop you off.

Went for a tequila tasting that fun, but ultimately I don't think we would go back. The food was overpriced.

An offshoot of Pujol that specializes in their tortillas. I was surprised that the menu is 100% vegetarian. Their enmoladas were my favorite; a simple dish with tortillas covered in mole sauce.

THE bakery to go to in Mexico City. Lines can get long but it moves quickly. You can't go wrong with anything but if you go in October, get the Pan de Muerto!

One of the top restaurants in the world and it lived up to it. Got in by putting our name on a waiting list, but recommend making a reservation a month or more in advance. The tasting menu is delicious and the wine pairing was done superbly.

Made the mistake of getting tacos to go to avoid the long line. It didn't travel well, so next time wait it out and eat there.

The ritziest part of Mexico City with tons of high end shops and restaurants. It was a very large contrast to other areas like Roma Norte.
A fun place to walk around with plenty of shops and people watching. Check out the opera house and other iconic buildings.
Beautiful park in the heart of Mexico City. The castle is definitely worth checking out.
Get on the canals of Mexico City and enjoy time with friends. You can hire a mariachi band as they float by you to get a quick serenade going.
