Cantinetta del Becco — Restaurant in Mexico City

Terrible experience. The service was extremely obsessive, they came to our table asking if everything was going well or if we needed anything else every 5 minutes (this is no joke). When the waiter asked us if we wanted any appetizers and we said "no thanks", he proceeded to offer soup, salad, bread, basically everything they had for appetizers, to which we had to just sit there listening to him trying to sell us stuff we had already declined. I ordered a piece of steak with "vegetable ashes". What I ended up getting was the weirdest piece of meat I have ever received: burned on the outside (it was as black as it can get), very red on the inside, extremely sweet, and no taste of meat whatsoever. Considering also that I got FOUR small cubes of fried potatoes, this was a very bad and disgusting plate. The plates that the other people got in my table were also extremely mediocre. On top of that, this place was extremely expensive. We got no desserts, no appetizers, and only one person asked for wine and the total check was about 90 dollars for only 3 people! Very unpleasant experience,...

Hard Pass – Major Disappointment ⭐⭐

Listen, I'm just going to be blunt. I made the mistake of picking Cantinetta del Becco for a birthday celebration, and honestly? Big mistake. My bad, really. I visited this place years ago and remembered it differently, but oh man, it's fallen so far.

The service here was just plain bad. And I mean, really, truly bad. Our server was distracted, slow, and just didn't seem to care. To top it off, our food actually arrived cold.

The menu itself? Super short, and honestly, nothing about it jumped out. It felt uninspired, like they weren't even trying to make things attractive.

I know this place still has some "fame" floating around, but trust me, it's completely undeserved. If you're a fan of Osteria del Becco (which, by the way, is good!), do yourself a huge favor and do NOT expect anything remotely similar here. It's a...

I took my friend for her bday she used to live in Italy for 10 years so if somebody knows about pastas and Italian food is her!! and she returned the raw pasta, then they got her same kind of pasta with different meat(ground beef instead of ossobuco cause they were out of it) my pasta was raw as well but in my culture we don’t return food we just don’t come back and tell our friends not to go, Specially when all the waiters and the boss started to be very arrogant about it! So we didn’t even finished the food we paid without having a dessert and coffee we just wanted to get out and eat in a place with good food! Really for a fancy place it has terrible food! Clearly they don’t have a chef just a cook! What a Shame cause is a nice atmosphere and at the beginning was a nice service so maybe it is a restaurant...
