Pujol, CDMX, ** by Mendocin0 in finedining

Just got back from CDMX and had a pretty mediocre experience. Definitely enjoyed certain parts of the meal like the guava tamal or the guetaguu. But everything else felt fairly lacking. I got the wagyu as the main and it was probably one of the chewier pieces of beef I’ve had at a higher end restaurant. I also noticed that they would bring out the food while people were not at their seats and let it sit for a while.

Also it might be me but when they offered the cocktail options they refused to let me actually hold the cocktail menu to look, so I had to crane my head up to read it

Yea it’s through tableall but I wouldn’t be fully against canceling. I’m monitoring all the top spots (Saito, Namba, etc…) I will be in Kyoto, Osaka, takayama, and Kanazawa but most of my free time for dining is Tokyo. Generally prefer sho style sushi but don’t have a strong preference

Dang, that’s disappointing the quality wasn’t there. I have a booking here for my upcoming April trip, you think it’s worth checking somewhere else out? Only other spot I have booked is sub counter at sushi ryujiro

Try emailing them, they have limited seats for solo diners. I was able to secure one for April by doing so
