Maximo Bistrot Local - Cuauhtémoc

My family went here recently on a visit to Mexico City. The restaurant had been recommended to my son by friends. It was nice to go to a different neighborhood than the one in which we were staying. The restaurant itself was very beautiful. We went on a Tuesday night and it ended up being full . We all enjoyed our meals. Some of the dishes we had included the organic BBQ fried chicken, the tagliatelle with beef tail ragout, the duck and the red snapper. For dessert we shared the french toast and the chocolate caviar cake with pink pepper ice cream. i am a chocolate lover but the french toast was much better. The waiter told us to order it. i didn't like the pink pepper ice cream on the chocolate caviar cake and the cake itself was just all right. The fried chicken appetizer was wonderful as was the tagliatelle that I had for my main course. I have no idea why some recent reviews gave this restaurant low marks. I would be happy to dine here again.

High expectations and sky high prices, but the result was a pretty middling fine dining experience. We did really enjoy an ahi tuna appetizer that we got — one of the best I’ve ever had. However most of the other dishes were just some flavor of decent. Service was fairly attentive but not particularly professional. It was a fine experience but not worth planning our whole day around

Visitamos este lugar al percatarnos de la variedad y creatividad que ofrecen. Espacio sencillo y modesto. Comenzamos con la burrata, jitomate (carpaccio de tomates) y un extraordinario pesto de brocolini, seguimos con el ceviche de pulpo a la mexicana, ambos platos sencillamente divinos al paladar. Continuamos compartiendo el risotto al porcini, un plato pequeño pero genial con el balance perfecto . Termine con el ribeye cocido perfectamente junto a hongo duraznillo. Tuve el placer de conversar con el Chef Eduardo García el cual tuvo la cortesía de sacar un tiempo para atendernos a pesar de el restaurante estar lleno a capacidad. Gracias Chef García por su humildad y por mantener la gastronomía en alto!

Invité a cenar a mi esposo de su cumpleaños y cenamos delicioso, es especial la entrada de hongos porcini estaba espectacular. Gran atención de los meseros, y el lugar es muy a gusto.

Llame a este lugar, ya que unos ejecutivos deseaban conocerlo, Ernesto que hace las reservaciones me dijo que no me podía atender porque la mesa para 5 personas que solicite era muy grande.Lastima que un lugar así se de el lujo de perder clientes por tener personal ineficiente.
