Tokyo Music Bar

Mediocre cocktails for this price point. Server was non-existent for most of our experience. When settling my bill, the server selected the 20% tip option before giving me a chance to select an option myself and hoped I wouldn’t notice…very questionable. The decor and unique vinyl record music are really the only thing this place has going for it. There’s so many better cocktail bars in Mexico City to spend your hard earned money at, I’d suggest going elsewhere.

One of my favorite bars in the city! The music is incredible, great drinks and awesome ambiance. I cannot recommend more. So cool

Was not expecting to have to yell at a vinyl bar where the staff wore ties.. Cute, but very loud music and ok drinks. A lot more hectic than vinyl bars in other cities.

If you are not local they don't like you, even though you come for a company party. Great we got in and we got space. But the front girl was rude as hell and the waiter was just as bad. Also the amount of vinyl you'd think you'd get a request. Beautiful venue but never again.

I am baffled that the reviews aren't higher for this place, after visiting handshake speakeasy, limantour and Tokyo music bar this was by far my favorite. drinks were outstanding, service was warm and quick. and the music and sound system was possibly the best of any establishment I've ever visited. the ambience was beautiful. I highly recommend for anyone who would like to enjoy a drink to good music. cheers Tokyo music bar!

Great cocktails, excellent DJ and amazing selection of vinyl.

Fun bar, but get reservations! This is one of the few places you're ever going to find Tannoy Westminster speakers in a bar. ($30,000 USD each). If you're a music lover, you're going to enjoy this place, although the DJ wasn't spinning anything too daring. Lots of dancy hits from years past, but still very fun. Drinks were great, affordable and service was fast even when busy.

This place has fantastic service, we were a little lost looking for the establishment outside and the security and lady in charge of seating were extremely helpful! She even assisted my wife in hanging her purse under the bar and even got me a cigarette. I have never experience such kind staff. What an amazing experience. Our bartender Manuel was extremely knowledgeable and took great care of us while we ordered drinks. Amazing experience overall, great music spun in vinyl and amazing staff. Congratulations on the current rotation of employees. Very friendly. I hope to return and receive the same service and quality. Everyone here deserves a bonus or raise! :)

Drinks 100/10 Vibes = immaculate This place is one of the best hidden gems I have ever randomly stumbled upon while browsing Apple Maps. It's pretty low-key and hard to find. Very speakeasy. The staff was so kind, the music was amazing, the drinks are perfectly balanced. All drinks were very homemade, so refreshing you can actually taste every single ingredient blended together to perfection! If you are planning on visiting CDMX please please add this spot to your itinerary.

A friend of a friend suggested Tokyo music bar and we had the opportunity to go so we checked it out. We went on a Monday and when we arrived, they asked if we had a reservation. We did not, but they luckily were able to find us a table, which seemed to be available either way but we didn't stay too long anyway. They play American music, has a speakeasy feel, and specialty cocktails are their thing. The drinks are on the pricier side and it's a fairly small space. I'm not sure if it has a different feel on the weekends, but a cool place to check out for a drink or two.

This bar is very reminiscent of a couple bars in a actual Tokyo, Japan. Upon ascending up the stairs and seeing the layout/ambiance, I got a sense of nostalgia as if I was literally walking into a bar in Tokyo. This bar is slightly bigger than what I'm used to in Tokyo but that's a good thing. The layout is comfortable and doesn't feel cramped. The music helps set the mood and is played through vinyl records that the staff manually plays. Very awesome vibes. The servers are very attentive have good knowledge of the cocktail menu. The spirts are slightly more expensive than bars even back home but I suppose that's expected in an establishment like this. They have a decent whisky collection and as they should...they are Tokyo Music Bar afterall and Tokyo sure loves their whisky.

This is a small "speakeasy" type of bar with delicious drinks. The staff was super friendly and attentive. They said you need to make a reservation but we went on a slow Monday night so we were able to get in.

Wow so sad to read the negative reviews because people couldn't dance. We spent hours at TMB just listening to the DJ playing crazy good beats at high quality have a great conversation and some delicious martinis. Exactly what we needed/wanted. Got our dance on at a different spot later in the night but not every place needs to be a dancefloor!

We made a reservation weeks in advance only to be told when we showed up that there was a "private event" and they could not honor our reservation. Complete waste of time. They never sent us any sort of cancellation notice before hand. I would definitely not recommend anyone patronize this unprofessional establishment.

What a great speak easy bar. We sat at the bar and were treated like royalty. Alex and the other bar staff were fantastic and very accommodating. They answered all our questions (in English if you struggle with your Spanish) and made well thought-out and creative cocktails which were delicious. The music was great, with the DJ spinning vinyl on a magnificent sound system which really set the mood.

Absolutely loved the ambience, service and cocktails. The Rolls Royce was smooth and delicious and very memorable .

Great vibes, as long as you know what you're getting into. This is not a club, so no dancing. The high-end cocktails are delicious, and the music is nicely curated. You can watch the DJ select records off the shelf and play them. Very unique spot! It's a bit hard to find from the street, like any good speakeasy.

Extremely awkward encounter with the hostess upfront. Walked up with my husband and a security proceeded to stop us and told us wait. When hostess arrived she said it's a reservation only place and they were full. Then proceed to point us to the sister bar next door. I looked up quickly on my phone and said that were tables available for the next hour, even for the next ten minutes! I showed the hostess the availability and she said I can book it and wait outside even though tables were available. We just decided to leave. Based on other reviews this is a common tactic by this place. Save your money and go somewhere else.

My friends and I wanted to go out on a Tuesday night. We requested a Daft Punk song..nice. Then we started to get up and dance. The waitress then told us, "Sorry but this doesn't go with the concept of the bar." Lowkey not a vibe. If you want cool pics and a drink..nice. But bro, we're in Mexico City & sounds a little pretentious. We're here to have fun.

This place wants to be a music destination, with a DJ spinning from a collection of hundreds of vinyls from the '90s, however, they have a mysterious "no standing" and "no dancing" rule but magically chose to only tell the only people of color in the bar this rule while all white people dancing were allowed to do so. The music was so loud, why have it that way if people can't facilitate having conversation since we're not allowed to dance? They said dancing goes against their "concept" -- what kind of stupid concept of a MUSIC bar that doesn't allow you to joy the music itself is this? It's a beautiful spot but the service absolutely sucks and they should get over themselves, especially when they won't let you in even if you are 5 minutes past your reservation - regardless of how full it is inside. Skip giving Tokyo Music Bar and bring your money elsewhere.

Las horas no están correctas en su página de internet. Hicimos una reservación para las 6pm el domingo y no nos dejaron entrar.

Good music, speakeasy type lounge bar. Live DJ mixing vinyl was a plus. 10 outta 10 would recommend.

Ambiance was great, but one of our drinks (the ivy & gold) arrived a quarter full. Thumbs down on service and drinks, one thumb up on ambiance.

Very cool "speakeasy" style upstairs bar. Tiny but comfortable and with great service. Focus is on the mixology and they do a great job. Features DJ playing vinyl records on turntables at the bar. Sound is great courtesy of speakers from London circa mid-1960s so I was told. All in all, well worth a visit.
