My parents and I were *hungry* after visiting Teotihuacan with our hired guide so our hired driver took us here. We started with a couple ollas of pulque—pina and mazapan (peanut butter). I loved the mazapan and my mom preferred the pina. I ordered the ensalada de nopales with a Corona michelada. A cold beer after hiking/backpacking/running/climbing around pyramids hits different. The service is spectacular and so is the food. So tasty and filling. Everything looks good, smells good, and is delicious.

What a treat after having spent some time exploring and walking around the pyramids. The food was delicious, and their orchata was amazing!

There are many restaurants nearby the Tehuacan archeological site, but you can’t go wrong with this one. Not only the food is fresh and tasty, with fast and attentive service, but it has the great view of the “Pyramid of the Sun”. There are the usual musicians playing for tips, and look at your check carefully, because 10% tip may already be included, although I was happy to leave some extra, because the service was so good.

Lunch here after exploring Teotihuacan was delicious! They have a great selection of meal options and the food we had was stunning! There is seating inside and outside with parasols provided for outdoor dining. We also had some music played for us between meals. The food was fantastic, great presentation and absolutely delicious! Slightly more expensive than I was expecting but definitely worth it as the food was fantastic! We were able to pay by card and the wait staff spoke English so we didn't have any trouble communicating. Everyone was also very friendly!

Went for lunch after visiting the pyramids of Teotihuacan. Actually walked by most of the restuarants near that entrance area and ended up walking back to this one; and, it was the best decision. Delicious food, warm and welcoming staff, well-manicured and pretty outside tables, clean and well-maintained. The waiter recommended dishes and we got them and we loved them! This place was a total winner. Thanks to the whole team for a great experience, hope to return. Without a doubt recommended.

local guide took us here for our lunch break. vibes are good, place is spacious and clean. got the barbacoa which is basically like lamb shank with tortilla and veggies and rice to wrap. came with lamb broth which was a nice added touch. bathrooms are also clean. band was singing happy birthday to some guests which was festive. english menus and english speaking waiters is also a good plus!

We went to eat here after visiting the pyramids. I had done Google searches prior to our trip and this was 1 of 3 restaurants that we were looking into. Ultimately, we chose this restaurant because the menu & photos of food seemed the most appetizing and also because we had kids. Coming to this restaurant was the best in all aspects. Our kids were able to play around in their playground. Ordered quesadillas plate for one of the kids. I ordered the taquitos plate to share with my son, and they were delicious. Husband got the plate with quesadillas, sopes, & another item. We also ordered the flan. The service was impeccable. Ruben was our waiter and he was very attentive to us. The rest of the staff to by offering to put Disney on the tv for the kids and telling us more of the amenities for kids (like having a step stool for the kids to wash their hands). Honestly, out of all the restaurants we’ve visited during our stay at CDMX, this was the first that was kid friendly with good food and good service. Def a must go to restaurant if you travel with kids. I know the cave restaurants are a “must” for the vibe, but this one is a must for calmness with kids.
