“ Great place for dinner! The “Chilatole” is one of my new favorite Mexican dishes. The drinks and food in general were excellent, but the service was spotty at first. I’d definitely go back here for more. ”
“ I was recommended here by my friend and it did not disappoint. The most amazing food! I love the philosophy behind being a woman led restaurant. I had one of the best meals here. The flavors were so well balanced and local ingredients makes it so fresh. We all loved our dishes and the desserts are very unique. They are also accommodating to allergies but do note there are nuts in a lot of desserts and dishes. But I had no problem and I am anaphylactic. ”
“ Very nice and simple. Flavors were great but not overly complicated. The mole verde was my favorite. ”
“ It is our last night in CDMX traveling with my mom and husband. We had only eaten street food the whole trip and wanted a proper sit down dinner for our last meal. Searched for restaurants around our room that had mole and Mux came up. Peaked at the menu and committed. We chose to sit outside on the corner to mix in some people watching. We all opted for the 5 course pairing menu that paired each course with a wine, cocktail or spirit. From start to finish we loved every course. Beautifully presented, an array of flavors and the pairings were well matched. Our favorite courses: Tuna tostada & Black Mole Service was incredibly friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Mux! ”
“ My favourite meal so far in Mexico City (after 5 days of being here and a lot of food). We ordered the spicy old fashioned and the cacao negroni for our drinks - both were perfectly balanced and delicious I LOVED the cacao negroni. For mains we ordered chilotole de cuyoaco and the mole de Barbacoa. My partner had been sick the last couple days and we had wanted to find something comforting for him - the chilotole was everything he didn’t know he needed. The barbacoa was spoon tender and the mole incredibly complex and delicious. Our server was wonderful in meeting us halfway with English and Spanish and was happy to offer suggestions and check in with us on how to get enjoyed everything I want to come back and try everything else! ”
