Raiz

“This was our favorite meal in Mexico City. From the time we walked in to the time we left, it was a great experience. They really should get a star. The service was professional, relaxed and attentive. We learned about the dishes, menu and had a great time without needing to ask for anything. We chose to go a la carte, but ended up ordering 7-8 dishes and they were all great. The steak melted in your mouth, the grasshopper tostada and ant egg dishes were a new one for us and we really enjoyed them. The foie was beautiful. Every dish was expertly plated and balanced. If you're a foodie, definitely book this place!”

“Excellent tasting menu. An ecclectic assortment of dishes with modern techniques highlighting traditional Mexican flavors and ingredients. Very pleased and impressed.”

“Amazing experience! The food was delicious. We had enmolada with escamoles, grasshopper tostada, aged duck, short rib, elotl and chocolate fig dessert. The staff were friendly and very helpful with suggestions.”

“One of the best dinners we had in Mexico City! The service at Raíz was beyond amazing! Every team member was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about each dish. We decided to share all of our plates, and they thoughtfully split and served them individually without us even asking. The pacing of each course was perfect, and their recommendations for both food and cocktails were spot on. Every bite and sip felt intentional and elevated. Truly one of the best meals and dining experiences of our trip! Michelin-worthy from start to finish.”

“We chose this place to celebrate a friend's birthday. We ordered everything a la carte. The pacing of the meal was entirely off. Without asking, they served every appetizer by round and we ordered 4 appetizers. Some of us ordered several tacos as the main dish whereas some ordered only the entree without any tacos. Again without checking with us, they served tacos first and then entrees. We spent 3+ hours at this place and everyone felt tired. The server didn't take any notes for our orders and they messed up a few dishes. We would appreciate it if he could note everything down instead of trying to impress the customers with "good" memory. The food itself is okay, nothing too memorable. Unique ingredients but the taste and combination of flavors are just above average. If this is the only fine dining you're going to try in Mexico City, I'd recommend skipping it. Given the experience we had, I don't think this place will earn any Michelin stars to be honest.”
