Food Scene

If you like ribs, pulled pork and other stuff that´s good for the soul (but bad for your heart), then this is where you want to go. The best ribs I´ve had in Mexico, by far and the pulled pork was exquisite. the fried broccoli was so-so.

Once in a while, you happen those restaurants that have a simple, unpretentious, yet exceptionally well executed vibe about them. Where as soon as you walk in, you know you are going to get a superlative meal and an all round experience to remember. Maximo is one of those restaurants. Simple wooden chairs and tables, white walls, funky mid-century light...

Great place to eat breakfast or lunch, very reasonably priced bike themed place, if you like spicy salsa, order anything with red salsa, it is really good!

This is a great steak place in the Roma area. Very reasonably priced and high quality meat, I have gone there three times and walked away very happy each time. I've gotten the arranchera and the special, expensive corte 7 (a splurge, but worth it. super tasty).

It is totally hipster as well as its crowd. The food is great with innovative dishes. It is definitely worth visiting and the Mexican cuisine here excels but don't expect complex culinary dishes-they're quite basic: tacos, tortas and quesadillas...beans, cheese, sauces and meat are part of most dishes. Go for the tacos Parnita, the torta Parnita too.

You can seat wherever, share table meet people or eat in a food bar. The decoration is modern and looks like a very popular place.

Drinks & Nightlife

If you're looking for a place to walk, eat, drink, enjoy with your friends then this is it. A lot of plazas, a lot of restaurants and bars, the perfect place for young people at night and everybody in the morning and afternoon. One piece of advice though, several restaurants close early so it's not the best place to have... Sightseeing

Arts & Culture

Very good pizza and, believe it or not, hotdogs. Great music and a lively crowd. Drinks were good and stronger than most places in Mexico City.

Getting Around

Around 4 blocks away from the apartment, not the best choice if you are carrying a lot of luggage.
