Pujol was a great tasting experience. The food was well prepared and very flavorful. We had the main dining room tasting menu and it was more food than I could eat. I do wish they had some sort of pairing but I guess that’s what the bar menu is all about. The only other thing I didn’t like was that it took 30 min from us sitting (at our reservation time) until we got our first bit of food. I wouldn’t have minded coming later if they want several tables starting at once on the same courses. Overall I really enjoyed eating here and was glad we came. I’d definitely come back for the bar menu!

Pretty decent food but the quantity is too small. My favorites were the baby corn and the wagyu. The only thing I didn’t like at all was the mole. I guess it just didn’t suit my taste.

First off atmosphere and service were top notch. Made it a high class experience.

I was expecting more from the food-side. With the hype of this as one of the best restaurants in North America, I expected to be blown away by at least one dish, but each dish was good but nothing I’ll remember the flavor of past next week. For the price I’d say it’s a fun experience to do once, but there are plenty of other great options to keep trying in CDMX.

Wine pairing was great

A bit disappointed. I was hoping to enjoy it a lot but objectively it didn't reach the quality...

When the wine and beer are more enjoyable than the food is a bad sign for a place like this.

I don't mind paying for a nice experience but this place is overpriced.

A bit weird and awkward that they put people together in a table without asking. I would prefer a more private dining if I'm with my partner//family.

Be careful if you drink because they might try and charge you more if they think you might be drunk...but they will apologise quickly if you realise. Not cool.

Food flavor is nice of course, but not mind blowing if you are Mexican or if you are an experienced foreign traveler and food lover.

Not coming back but I guess it wasn't the worse.

It's an experience for sure. Could you get more for your money in terms of portions? Sure. But the food and how it's presented is something you won't find anywhere else. Don't come here expecting a Mexican restaurant ambience. You'll feel like you're in an restaurant in some big U.S. city when you look around and the the majority of clientele is American and speaking English. Cons: reservations have to be made well in advance, price is very high but expected for this caliber of restaurant. The ten-course meal in my photos was $3495 sans alcohol.

I will describe my experience at Pujol and at the end I will leave my final experience review :
I don’t know if you can just walk in or not but in my case I made reservation for 1 person (me) so I didn’t have any issues. The first dish they brought the entree or as they called it “snack” was exquisite. The place I was seated on was nice however if you have chubby legs I suggest you mention that to the staff or your waiter, because it is somewhat tight (at least the place I was seated at by the waiter). The noice level created by the customer is relatively low and the music played was lovely it was a classy Latin American music (not pop music at all which is appreciated ). I absolutely love how each dish was explained to me. And the taste, oh my god it resemble so many traditional Mexican dishes in a new concept and a new flavor. The waiters were very attentive so much that sometimes I didn’t even realized my cup of water was already empty but they notice it and refill it. The waiting period between each course is just not enough to take a break and reflect on the flavors experienced. Also some foods are supposed to be eaten by hand so don’t worry about getting your hands dirty and at the end of the course they bring you a warm wet towel to clean your hands (loved the service).
Summary: I highly suggest this place to eat it’s worth the money in every sense.

I'm not sure how this is classified as one of the top restaurants in Mexico City. There was nothing amazing about the food or the drinks. None of the flavors were unique, surprising or special. The service was fine but lacking some essentials (we only got 3 menus to share between 5 people, and we were asked if we wanted drinks without having been given a drinks menu, and then they never came back to take our drinks order). The ambience was okay, nothing to write home about. Nothing about this "experience" (if I can even call it that) was worth the insane price tag.

Not sure this is a local favorite based on conversations during our travel, but myself and 10 friends really enjoyed the meal and overall experience. The location perfect, atmosphere very welcoming for a fine ding establishment, and the service was second to none. Very well orchestrated and we are our courses over roughly 4 hours. Each dish had different flavors and perfectly complemented the prior plate. They explained each dish and how to eat it, and recommend drinks to pair with our meals. Glad I got to go here on my life and would recommend it to anyone.

The attention to detail is superb and the wait staff does an excellent job sharing the details of each entree. I was a little disappointed that this restaurant charges for filtered water, and for each refill you get (I don’t even request for the refills, they just kept coming; they charge by the bottle that you don’t even get to keep at your table). I think it’s important to notify guests of this expense. Lunch tasting menu was alright. I heard the menu items are exceptional, but I didn’t get to try them since our reservation was solely for the tasting menu. My husband is a big foodie and he thought this place was good, but was not mind blowing or exceptional (for the food). We would not return, but it was a good (and expensive) experience!

Nice atmosphere and beautiful decor, found lightening a bit too dark for my taste. Had the tasting menu, which was interesting but not exceptional. Dishes were all well prepared but did not amaze me. Great service, definitely expensive bill. Overall, a nice one night experience, but truly overrated.
