"Once an auto repair shop, then a pool hall, the bones of its industrial past are ever-present at this chic restaurant in Roma Norte. Though Maximo has only been here for a handful of years, they're making a mark, both for the chef and his fascinating life story and for his internationally influenced Mexican cuisine, offered as a tasting menu and à la carte. Bread with roasted eggplant with a pleasant charcoal essence arrives after you take a seat, then slices of kampachi with avocado cream have just a hint of spice. French leanings are evident in the duck breast with crispy skin and jus with a touch of sherry, while the goat cheese ice cream with a drizzle of oil and a guava sauce with sprinkles of pumpkin and nuts is a very pleasant finale." - Michelin Inspector
