From tamales and tortas to gorditas and carnitas, Chef Juan Cabrera takes Mexican comfort foods you'd find in a local Mexican food market and deconstructs them into culinary masterpieces at Fonda Fina. Awaken your palate with one of the fruity mezcal cocktails before moving on to the tortilla soup, pork belly sopecito (a corn tortilla typically loaded with cheese and meat), tamales and moles. A variety of homemade ice creams are the best way to round out a meal.

Chef Enrique Olvera—the celebrity chef behind New York's Cosme—offers two different dining options at his highly acclaimed Pujol: a multi-course tasting menu in the formal dining room and a "taco omakase" meal at the low-slung bar featuring various tacos, antojitos, and botanas. You'll likely get to taste Olvera's famed mole madre dish no matter which you choose, it'll just be in taco form at the bar. If you're set on going to Pujol, you'll want to book your reservation before you book your flight.

Is a true farm-to-table restaurant. The menu changes frequently to reflect the seasons and availability of local produce, and García sources fruits and vegetables grown on the nearby chinampas of Xochimilco and the surrounding estado. The food is simple bistro-style: crisp-skinned trout with clams, peas, and wild spinach, or a velvety chicken liver to spread on toast with sweet cherries. Purees, creamy spreads, and sweet sauces find their way onto most plates.

Good breakfast in La Roma. There are Mexican dishes like chilaquiles en salsa verde and chorizo with eggs, as well as familiar brunch plates like French toast with whipped cream and berries, and a Croque Monsieur. If you've ever wanted to try escamoles (ant larvae), this is a good place to do so. Sautéed in butter, folded into scrambled eggs, then served in a taco with chunks of avocado, they're approachable and almost unnoticeable.

Save for the shrimp po'boy, it's hard to see why La Docena refers to itself as a New Orleans-inspired oyster bar. No matter—the seafood is fresh and there's enough cured ham to please everyone. The raw clams, aguachiles, octopus tostadas, and house-made aioli are especially nice, and the French fries here are some of the best in town. There's only one dessert on the menu: a molten chocolate cake with banana and ice cream.

Is truly pan-Asian, featuring Chinese dim sum, Japanese izakaya-style meat skewers, and noodles and soups from Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. For locals unfamiliar with the nuances of regional Asian cuisine—or really anyone having ma pa tofu or ramen for the first time—the food is explosively good. Tourists may be less in awe of the food, but it's a great and affordable option when the palate tires of Mexican food.

The artsy-upper crust of La Condesa, hanger-ons following the scene, business men on lengthy lunches, and a smattering of tourists fill out the dining room at Contramar. You'll fully understand why lunch is the most important—and longest—meal of the day in Mexico City here: By 2 P.M. on Fridays, the brandy and rosé start flowing and a casual meal turns into multiple rounds of food and drink, smoke breaks on the sidewalk, an overall celebration to kick off the weekend.

Located on a particularly tree-lined section of Amsterdam Avenue in chic Condesa, MeroToro wears the surf-and-turf tag well. Appetizers made with super fresh seafood from Baja California are especially delicious and prepare your palate for what's to come. The larger plates, like pork torchon with lentils and a poached egg, or braised beef tongue with beans and charred salsa, are elegant and satisfying.

The menu is short and sweet with just three types of meat: al pastor, bistec, and chicharron. Everything can be ordered on corn or flour tortillas and cloaked with cheese. The salsas are piquant, zippy, and incredibly spicy. There are also a few speciality items like quesadilla-like gringas, and piratas. If the pork skins weren't enough, order the fried donut dessert with dulce de leche, crumbled nuts, and banana ice cream.

Chef Mónica Patiño has been delighting diners with her French-inspired fare since she first opened Casa Virginia in 2014. Set in an airy multi-room townhouse, the space—the décor of which juxtaposes old world charm with modern rustic chic—is the perfect place to hunker down and enjoy a leisurely lunch. While the menu changes seasonally, standouts here include the steamed asparagus and tomato salad and slow-cooked pork to share.

Situated in the heart of Roma, one of the best barrios for nightlife in the city, M.N.Roy also has a somewhat legendary status for its revolutionary namesake and celebrity clientele. If you get in, you’ll be able to enjoy electronic music and a wide selection of cocktails, but getting in is tricky; M.N.Roy is incredibly exclusive. You literally have to be in possession of a membership card (or ring!) to enter, or be tight with whoever’s on the door that night.

Barragán has had a profound influence not only on three generations of Mexican architects, but many more throughout the world. In his acceptance of the Pritzker Architecture Prize, he said, "It is impossible to understand Art and the glory of its history without avowing religious spirituality and the mythical roots that lead us to the very reason of being of the artistic phenomenon. Without the one or the other there would be no Egyptian pyramids, nor those of ancient Mexico. Would the Greek temples and Gothic cathedrals have existed?"

An excellent option for contemporary art fans is the striking outward-sloping walled Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, situated in the quirky Coyoacán district. Colloquially known as MUAC, it’s spacious and highly recommended for art fans visiting Mexico City. Its permanent collection has almost 1,500 pieces and features works from 1952 onwards – but its building is practically an art work in itself.
