"I spent hours on Reddit and TripAdvisor, and I still have no idea where to actually eat..."

Hey there, my name is Mario.
As the American author of Mexico City: The Ultimate Travel Guide (available on Amazon), I spent over 5 years eating my way through Mexico City.
Not as a tourist passing through, but as someone who actually lived there.
And here's what I learned:
Finding food in Mexico City isn't the problem!
Everywhere you turn here, someone is always selling comida.
The sheer volume of choices can be overwhelming!
And that leads to a new problemâŚ
How do you know which spots are truly delicious, and which ones are not?
Because your time and money are valuable.
You donât want to waste either on bad dining experiences!
So, Iâve done the research for you.
After testing hundreds of spots - and wasting money on plenty of bad ones - I mapped out the 130+ places worthy of your time.

"This map saved my trip. I had 4 days in Mexico City and zero time to research. Every single spot was legitâno tourist traps, no disappointments. The late-night taco spot alone was worth the price. My friends back home couldn't believe the photos."

"I've traveled a lot and usually figure things out myself. But CDMX felt pretty overwhelming, the first time I went there alone. This map was like having a local friend in my pocket. The 'what to order' notes were clutch. I don't speak Spanish but I ate like a king!"
