The best barbecue in Mexico City! The brisket sandwich is fantastic as is the mac 'n' cheese. Well priced and a friendly staff.

The menu here is an eclectic mix of bbq and Asian that makes for some unique flavors. I had the brisket and noodle taco as well as the beef rib taco and the Mac and cheese as a side. The brisket has a good bark and great smoke flavor with the noodles makes a good combination, the beef rib was excellent as well and the mac and cheese was delicious. There is a variety of sauces that include a sweet and spicy BBQ, habanero, and a spicy soy based sauce. There's a full bar and a great balcony space.
Anyone who says the prices are high for simple food doesn't know what it takes to properly smoke meat.
I will come back here on my next trip to Mexico City.

Overall it was good and worth the price. The baby back ribs could have been slightly more tender, but still worth it. Mac and Cheese and Coleslaw was good.

The ribs were ok but could have been better. A bit on the dry side for pork ribs. Nice place for catching up with friends though

So, this is a real mixed bag,as I'm sure you can see in the ratings.

The first thing I will say is that the food is unrivalled in the city when it comes to this style. The ribs, the fries, the mac and cheese, and the pulled pork were all incredible. I mean it, the sauce combined with the flavour of the meat was just wonderful, and kind of reminded me of a place I had never been, of that makes sense... Anyway, it felt authentic. In terms of portion size, they were bang on the mark. The ribs comes with fries and it is enough to fill you up.

To drink, I would recommend the lemonade, and with options to buy by the gallon, you can share with friends.

The problem is when you have great food is that you still need good service. Waiting 20 minutes to order, having issues with your order, and staff failing to bring items that were asked for and frankly essential, are not things that endear a restaurant to customers. Maybe it was being sat outside, maybe it was a bad day. Either way, I only have this experience to go by.

The atmosphere was OK, but you would not write home about it,so I stayed neutral in my assessment.

Look, I will return. That is how good the product is. I will give staff the chance to make amends too, and who knows, I may reassess my review.

If you live in CDMX, you really should try the food (think it is on Rappi too).

It is alright, meat is pretty dry and overcooked. If you ever have tried Texas BBQ, you probably wont like this.

Great BBQ spot, reminded me of being back in the states with a Mexican tasty twist. Ordered wayyyy too much food, but it was still good to eat the next day. Would come again!
