The manager and service is amazing. The fig mole was sweet and savoury and delicious! Chicken was well cooked and moist and the drinks were refreshing. The flavours stood out and the service was fast attentive.

We stumbled upon this restaurant because it had seemly good vegetarian and poultry options. We were a little skeptical because there was no one there on a Friday night around 6:30. Lorena was super attentive and helped us order some spectacular dishes. It was so good that we went twice in a 4 day trip! My boyfriend had the signature mole with chicken and he LOVED it!! The owner mentioned that they had only been open for 2 weeks in this location so it’s still building a fan base. I would highly recommend it all!!

Update 8.5. Champandomgo is must order. Chile nogada also wonderful, filling a bit sweet for me. Chalupas were great. Tomato soup also pretty good. Champandongo, pastel de pollo, mole, tortilla, nata y queso; horneado y decorado con mole y nata; receta del siglo XIX This is a must order!! 8 could go up on next visit. Def worth trying Chile Nogada next time also didn’t get a chance. Tomato soup was also great. Def come here

My best friend and I stopped in here after seeing the unique mole offerings online. Right as we walked in, we were warmly welcomed. The ambiance was lovely too. Our food was delicious — best mole we’ve ever had! — and Lorena and her staff were all fantastic.

Came here with my wife and two small children. We wanted good, traditional Mexican food that was different than your standard tacos, flautas, and tostadas. It did not disappoint. The food was absolutely incredible. Especially the carnitas, chalupas, and an amazing poblano soup. The staff was so good to our young daughters and gave us a memory that caused me to both recommend this restaurant to my in-laws and write this review. I give it 5 because Google won't let me give it 10.

This was one of the best dining experiences we had in CDMX. The food was so delicious and unique. I highly recommend the chile en nogada - I’ve never had anything remotely like this dish and the flavours were so complex. Their mole dishes were also amazing. The service was fantastic (they had English-speaking staff and an English menu) and were kid-friendly even though it was a more upscale setting. By the way this is a newly opened location.

Absolutely delicious mole and horchata! Very friendly service, very easy to understand menu but servers were generous to help us figure it out as well. We will be coming back any time we are in the area!

What a great restaurant with delicious food from Puebla. Although I am not a fan of "sweet" food I really enjoyed my Pechuga Pollo Con Queso Cabra with an Apricot Mole - such complex flavours. My girlfriend loved her Pipian Verde as well!! As a starter we had Arroz Poblano, which was also super tasty. Very friendly and attentive service / owner and very well located in Roma Norte. Highly recommended!
