My recent visit to the restaurant was a unique experience, to say the least. I attended with a large group, and we opted for the tasting menu, an adventure that promised an unforgettable culinary journey. The Food: The tasting menu was extensive and catered to diverse preferences with two different pairings: juices and wine. While the food was generally excellent, a critical component seemed to be missing. Tasting menus often tell a story, each dish a chapter that ties into an overarching theme. Unfortunately, this element was noticeably absent, leaving each dish feeling like a standalone experience rather than part of a cohesive narrative. Drink Pairings: When it comes to the drink pairings, the juice options outshone the wine. The juices were expertly crafted to complement the flavors of the food, enhancing each bite and offering a more comprehensive experience. Service: The service, though friendly, lacked depth of knowledge. When asked about specific ingredients or the inspiration behind a dish, the servers often had to consult someone in the kitchen. This disrupted the flow of the meal and left some questions unanswered. Overall Experience: Despite these shortcomings, the overall experience was enjoyable. The food was crafted with care and skill, but the lack of thematic coherence and knowledgeable service kept the experience from reaching its full potential. Would I go back? Yes, but I hope to see more attention to detail and a more storytelling approach to their tasting menu in the future.

I had the opportunity to sample a special “day of the dead” tasting menu. So please keep in mind that my food review will be from that perspective. The Good: - The restaurant dining room is beautiful. It’s well laid out, and beautifully designed. - The location is in a very nice area of the city with easy parking. - Presentation of the food is beautiful, colorful and has nice contrast. The Bad: - The service. At times, the service was abrupt and without elegance. Dishes were pushed forcefully in front of us and servers spoke with little passion of the food. - The ambient noise. Expect the restaurant to be loud and hard to hear. Maybe it was our evening, but a large table was sat in the middle of the restaurant and were very loud for most of the evening. We could barely hear our servers speak to us. - The flavor. While each dish was beautiful, the actual flavor fell flat on many. At times it felt as though the dishes lacked seasoning. The Unforgivable: - Allergies. My dining companion explained their allergy in detail to the server. They were served a dish and told it did not contain the allergen, and the menu did not list it, but when questioned further, the restaurant admitted it did contain the allergen. There was no apology, and the situation was poorly handled. - The wine pairings. The sommelier so much as admitted that there is no inspiration behind the pairings, and that the chef dictated what to pair, as did guests. The pairings made zero sense, and were repetitive at best. Feedback was met with a simple shrug and repeated dirty looks for the rest of the evening. - The experience. While some tables received what appeared to be higher levels of service (including the chef coming to serve dishes and speak to the table), many in the dining room did not receive this. Other tables were heard audibly complaining about this. It felt as though only certain customers mattered. Overall, I cannot say I will try the restaurant again. Too many red flags and inconsistencies. But I’d encourage others to try for yourselves and form your own opinions, your experiences may be more positive.

Encouraged by Michelin Star Guide, I decided to book this restaurant upon my visit in Mexico City. The booking process was very easy. No deposit, plenty of availability, quite unusual for Michelin-awarded place. The location is far out of the city centre but located in an upscale neighbourhood. It took us 1h drive from Roma Norte. As we entered we were greeted and brought to a table. The waiter approached us without introducing himself. He didn’t walk us through a menu either. The approach was friendly but distant. We opted for degustation menu that consisted of multiple dishes concluded with 3 desserts. We added juice and infusions pairings instead of wine and I do believe it was the best idea as the infusions paired truly beautifully with the food. The food itself did not blow us away and the menu lacked meat options. Presentation was great, dishes were interesting but lacked that “je ne sais quoi”. Weakest dish: Kampachi Best dish: Seasonal Mushroom broth Waiters’ presentation of dishes was alright. They struggled a little with English but the communication was good enough, just not Michelin Star level. The ambiance of the restaurant was perfect. The decor, dimmed lights, music - on point! Overall a solid choice for spending your evening, but quite far from the standard set by European and American Michelin Starred restaurants.

In summary, Sud 777 was an absolutely amazing experience, and I would strongly recommend coming here if you are visiting Mexico City. We were a large party, so took about four hours to complete the tasting menu, and all walked away quite happy with both the food and the wine pairing. The restaurant itself was also quite beautiful. As with any tasting menu, there were some strong and weak points. Some of the highlights were the initial trio of appetizers (pictured), which were all quite interesting in their own way. We also all quite liked the sea urchin + avocado (pictured), the mango dish was absolutely amazing, and the cut of beef & black cod was also very good. Considering the length of the menu, it's hard to list everything that we enjoyed. Of all of the dishes, the tomato was a bit weak, and while I appreciated the idea behind the cheesecake + red sauce, most of us didn't particularly enjoy it. Mexico City is in many ways to me similar to San Sebastian. You could spend your entire trip eating delicious food without going to fine restaurants - but if you are looking for the experience of one, I would strongly recommend Sud 777.

“Very Confused…” Let’s start with the positives: The service was amazing, the restaurant was beautiful and there was no traffic on the way home. That’s where the good part ends. This restaurant came highly recommended from non touristy food friends, trusted advisors and top 50-100 list (other spots on the list have been great). This was perhaps the largest delta between expectations and reality. Most dishes were bland and lacked boldness and power which is what I love so much about Mexican cuisine. At times dishes were hard to eat. We could not finish a single dessert. I started to giggle because I haven’t had an experience like this since I accidentally ate hot dog pizza in the center of the touristy part of Florence. The only explanation could be if they changed chefs after they made the top 100 list. The best dish was a taco that wasn’t even on the menu and it peaked at a 5/10. I feel bad because the service was great and it felt like they knew we didn’t enjoy the food but I feel obligated to steer tourists away until the food gets better. The presentation was great.
