Em

EM is a fantastic fine-dining restaurant with creative and delicious food. It's pricey and crowded, especially since they have a Michelin Star. The only downside was that they asked us to leave at the end of our meal because someone else was waiting for our table. I recommend trying their set menu and book in advance.

Had an amazing dining experience at EM in Mexico City! The standout dishes for me were the bluefin tuna crudo and the avocado tuna toast topped with caviar, both bursting with fresh, exquisite flavors. The baby carrots were surprisingly delicious, adding a delightful touch to the meal, and even the chicken dish was outstanding. Every bite was a testament to the chef's mastery. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to indulge in high-quality, inventive cuisine!

We had the tasting menu and really enjoyed it. I've never had a meal with so many courses--we had four for dessert alone. Some of the food looked better than it tasted, or was conceptually better than the final result, but it was all fun and a delight to experience. Our favorite dish was probably the brined chicken or the mini mamey ice cream pie. The cost was very high--over $200/person with sharing a bottle of wine.

Em is a cosy, semi casual michellin starred restaurant and has pretty yummy and elevated Mexican food. The only let down was the service - I had to ask for an English menu twice and by the 3rd time, the menu that was delivered to me had the name of any customer! And also, I felt the whole service was very rushed... it was as if they want us out asap

Food & wine pairing: truly exceptional. We were just in Japan for a week and ate at multiple 1 and 3 star places - this was better than all of them. Possibly the best wine pairing I’ve ever had at this price point. Service: truly attentive, fun and friendly. We ended up getting an accidental free glass of Burgundy Pinot Noir because of it! Atmosphere: like eating on a perfect summer evening with no sirens or loud noises (other than the traditional handcart whistle outside. Highly recommend! And don’t forget to make a reservation at the speakeasy upstairs for an after dinner drink!

Amazing food and a true Michelin restaurant! It is a small intimate space so reservations are highly recommended. The selling point of coming here was the option to do a la carte, as my boyfriend does not like seafood and some of the other Michelin restaurants in MX were set menu. Every dish that we had was amazing. We started off with the passion fruit mezcal mule. Super refreshing with a nice hint of mezcal smoke. We were served complimentary cactus dashi. My boyfriend was hesitant to try this but he loved it!! It was served warm and very soothing for our stomachs. When we told our server how much we loved it, they even gave us a second serving :) We shared the corn soup. It was soooo creamy and delicious. Loved how they poured the soup in front of us! And the chili gave it a nice kick but it wasn't too spicy. The brioche bread with the cultured butter went well with the soup and we were very happy they were served together. The butter was also super pretty to look at as it had some sort of ash designed into it. The charred baby corn was my boyfriend's favorite. We had never had corn served this way! Super unique. A big portion as well. The grilled chicken definitely stole the show. The best chicken I have ever had! The meat was so juicy and the skin perfectly crisp. I lovedddddd this dish. And it came with a lot as well such as bean puree. We were so full we almost couldn't finish the rib eye. The meat was soft and the slices thick. My boyfriend doesn't like mushrooms but he ate the mushrooms and gravy haha. The staff here were super nice. It didn't seem like you are assigned one server tho because multiple staff kept asking us the same thing. Also I think they got our take out food mixed up with someone else's! We asked to pack up a tiny bit of charred corn but when we got home our taken out was of chicken lol.

Truly exceptional! Em exceeded my expectations! My family and I travelled from California to Mexico City this past weekend just to try this restaurant and we were very impressed! Starting with the food to the servers and meeting Chef Lucho, the whole experience was like no other. Every dish had a unique and exquisite taste. A true Michelin restaurant! It makes me proud that a Mexican chef represents our Mexican cuisine with such elegance and authenticity. Bravo Lucho!

Took my brother here for his 21st birthday celebration as we came to visit CDMX for the first time. Unfortunately, the food didn’t really live up to the hype. The best dish was the crudo and the corn, overall the dishes missed the mark on any distinctive taste that differentiates itself from the crowd of expensive dining. The service was sub par as well. Partially due to how small the space is but the staff was chaotic throughout the service. Several times things were brought to then taken away from our table then brought back and asked if we had tasted a dish that was taken away. (?) I also find it ridiculous that tipping isn’t included when all other one star+ places have it already in price. Another ridiculous aspect is having to pay an extreme premium for still or sparkling water when it’s Mexico and there’s no world where you can safely drink the tap. All in all, though there were some highlights, the experience overall was sub par.
