Círculo del Sureste — Restaurant in Mexico City

Pseudo-Fine-Dining.

We had lunch here and were sadly disappointed. The restaurant was nearly empty, only a (not really happy-looking) couple of two sat next to us. At first we didn't get any menu and were supposed to order drinks and food. After asking for the menu, the high prices (new price-tag-sickers over the original menu) for the food were suprising. We ordered Huevos Motuleña, Tacos Cochinita Pibil, Sopa verdura and Torta Cochinita (I had the Torta). The food was not the best and definitely not worth the price. We got overcooked Vegetables and funky-tasting onions on the side. My Torta Cochinita was horrible. Not only the bread was soggy and cheap, the meat had a too sour taste to it too, overall I couldn't finish the dish because it was absolutely not enjoyable. I wouldn't be so mad about the food, if it was half the price. You could definitely eat better at any street food place in Mexico (not only considering the price). My horrible Food-experience here was topped as we had to pay the bill. Usually you give a tip about 10-20% if you were satisfied in the restaurant. We wanted to give about 5% tip because of already told reasons, which was not possible, because you are forced to choose between 10%, 15%, or 20% tip if you pay by card.

Don't go there if you want to spend money...

Service was excellent what is to be expected from a higher end dinning establishment. Food was good not bad not great but good. Price for average Mexican salary is on the higher end however affordable for someone traveling from abroad. Interior is very nice looks renovated and new and they have an awesome children's area so if you're travelling with young kids not a bad place...

Como siempre, excelente atención y sabor.

La atención es increíble por parte de todo el personal, su organización es muy buena, lo que hace que te sientas realmente atendido.

Las recomendaciones son los tacos de pavo y de cochinita, solo considera que se toman un tiempo para prepararte los taquitos. La sopa de tortilla es buena, cumple con el sabor. Los frijoles con puerco no tienen comparación, son muy deliciosos, te los preparan al momento y te los sirven calientes. La salsa de habanero y el habanero picado son bastante buenos, ya que el picor sí es elevado. El queso con zarzamora es rico y no empalaga, por lo que si no eres tan fan de lo dulce, ésta podría ser una buena opción. El flan de cajeta es bastante rico, pero sí tiene un nivel de dulzor un poco elevado, así que considera esto antes de seleccionarlo. Las fresas con crema son deliciosas, tienen el correcto balance en lo dulce y las fresas no están ácidas, excelente selección de fresas.

Cuentan con valet parking, así que no te preocupes...
