My husband and I supposed to go the this other restaurant that I've been, which was pretty good but the store was busy. So we ended walking around and checking some other restaurants. We came across La Aceituna with the intention of just checking the menu, it was 11:45am. I was not ready for a heavy meal because it was too early for me. After seeing the menu, my expectation was pretty low due to a lot of disappointing experiences from the restaurants we've been. We've been in Mexico city for three months now. So after seeing the menu, we decided to try it. I had beef medallion with creamy sauce and my husband got rib eye with fries. While waiting for the food. They served us with complimentary nachos with guacamole. I also ordered cafe mocha. When the coffee was served. Instantly, I am impressed. To add to my surprised, it only took first bite for me to changed my mind about the restaurant. My order came with steamed vegetables and creamy spinach with almonds. All the foods we got were all seasoned very well. I don't know what Juan's postition in the restaurant, but the service we got from him was excellent. He's very friendly and accomodating. Always checked on us which is my definition of great customer service. We had a conversation about my husband and I's experiences in Mexico, which I find very pleasing cause most of the waiters never really talk to me cause I am not white. So that was a great experience in La Aceituna. Kodus ko Juan! We'll definitely come back and I would definitely recommend the place. Good price, great food and excellebt service.
