While in Mexico City for our honeymoon, we ate at some incredible restaurants. As far as overall experience though, I think Casa Virginia was my favorite. Everything was delicious, perfectly cooked and presented in a beautiful way. Plus the service was impeccable!
We needed a place to go to for thanksgiving dinner. While not a popular holiday in Mexico, it was still hard to find places with reservations for 8 ppl due to Covid. CV made it really easy with open table, we got a res for 7pm.
They sat us down in the back room in this gorgeous private space with a long table. When I explained that I was gluten free, they carefully wrote down on the menu all the things I needed to avoid. There was still a ton I could order.
Our group did family style, and ordered almost everything. We got the friend shrimp wontons, the escargot, the burrata, pate, the pork mignon, sea-bass, short rib, lamb shank, risotto and a whole fish!
Everything we ate was amazing. I had to skip the shrimp and risotto but I was told those were also great. My favorite dish was probably the lamb shank and the fish.
Our cocktails and wine were also perfectly balanced and amazing. Wine in Mexico isn't always the best, but CV had a wonderful selection and we ended up ordering 4 or 5 bottles.
Even though this restaurant isn't as well known or eclectic as some of the others you've heard of, it is a must if you are seeking delicious and well made food!
