Best Contemporary Mexican Restaurants in Metepec

Impeccable service and beautiful food. Do yourself favor and order 2 Tostadas and don’t skip dessert! Also their St Germain Spritz is the perfect sweet and refreshing cocktail after a long hot day. So glad we snagged a reservation and saved this gem of a restaurant for our last day in CDMX! BTW, I overheard another patron talking about this being their 3rd time eating at the restaurant (they’re from Spain) and they also had a reservation for later next week!

Amazing view ! Excellent service!!! What a place !!!

We were shown to our table right away. Th service was excellent throughout and the food was superb.

Dining at Lorea in Mexico City was an extraordinary experience, elevated even further by sitting at the chef’s table, where we witnessed firsthand the artistry of Chef Oswaldo Oliva and his talented team. The tasting menu was a masterful celebration of Mexican ingredients and flavors, thoughtfully reimagined through modern techniques and creative storytelling. Each dish showcased a deep respect for native ingredients, blending tradition with innovation in unexpected yet harmonious ways. The attention to detail was impeccable, not just in the food but also in the warm and knowledgeable service, making every moment feel intentional and special. The wine pairing was equally impressive, carefully curated to enhance the complexity of the dishes. While every selection stood out, the true revelation of the evening was the Rosa de Uva from Bodega del Viento (Coahuila, Mexico)—a beautifully balanced rosé that exemplifies the growing excellence of Mexican winemaking. This pairing, alongside the intricate flavors of the menu, highlighted the richness and diversity of Mexico’s culinary heritage. Lorea is more than a restaurant; it is a sensory journey through the best of Mexico’s ingredients, executed with precision, passion, and a touch of magic. For those seeking an unforgettable dining experience in Mexico City, it is an absolute must-visit.

Our server was fantastic. The food was amazing as expected from St Regis. An added bonus was the violinist who played throughout our meal walking around the tables. Truly an incredible experience we hope to revisit in Mexico City on our return trip.
