5 Stars!

From beginning to end, this dining experience was truly unforgettable. Carla and the entire team made sure every detail was perfect, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Being seated at the kitchen bar was an incredible experience, allowing us to watch the chefs in action as they prepared the amazing dishes we were about to enjoy. Everything was absolutely delicious! I’m typically picky, but I think I ate everything and loved almost every bite. The dessert was beyond words—just unbelievable. The attention to detail in the presentation was pure art. If you have the chance, this is a must-visit spot, and I will definitely be back!

Completely worth the hype. It was an incredible experience from start to finish. Each course of the chef’s menu was creative, exciting, and cooked to perfection. The chefs kindly and courteously accommodated my pregnancy dietary restrictions. Angel, our server, was a standout and was extremely knowledgeable and kind. My favorite course was the pan de elote though they were all delicious and memorable.

Absolutely incredible and 100% worth the hype. I really struggled to decide between Quintonil and Pujol for our tasting menu dinner in Mexico City. In the end, I decided on Quintonil and although I obviously haven’t tried the alternative, I feel confident I made the right choice. I had a bit of trouble making my reservation because we were planning to be in CDMX the second week of January and apparently they were revamping their reservation system, but I persevered and was able to get a 7pm Thursday evening reservation for a party of 4. I don’t want to say too much about the experience because I was delighted going in with minimal knowledge but everything from the atmosphere of the restaurant to the food to the service was perfection.

Upon being seating our waitress, Vivi (who was outstanding), asked if we had any dietary restrictions. I opted for the vegetarian option, my husband requested no shellfish and our two friends went with the regular chef's menu. I am not a vegetarian, but I find that I typically prefer the veggie option at tasting menu restaurants, and if there is a meat dish that my husband thinks I will love he lets me have a bite. Sometimes the vegetarian presentations and flavors can feel like an afterthought but I was really impressed with all of my dishes and felt like they really held up to their meat dish counterparts.

Each dish was served with a description of what you were eating and why it was on the menu often accompanied by a presentation of the ingredients like the huitlacoche, cacti and insects. Favorite dishes included the tamal, chileatole and tostada but we really did love the entire meal. The coconut sorbet with caviar seemed like a weird choice but the flavors were incredible together.

At the end of our meal Vivi gave us a little information packet along with a customized copy of our menus. When I got home I discovered the service notes on the back of my menu that gave me a little insight into how precisely our evening had been coordinated. Truly impressive.

Well, so much for not saying too much about our experience. Oops! So happy that we were able to get a reservation and experience this special restaurant in Mexico City.
