Reviews

This place truly deserves a Michelin star! It’s hands down the best food I've had in Mexico City. Every dish bursts with flavor, made from fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the daily-changing menu keeps it exciting. The chef and his team are incredibly talented and make the dining experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

I've been twice, today for brunch and on Día de la Independencia...because the first experience was so amazing. The friendliest and inspirationally positive atmosphere is the first thing you'll notice. Service is excellent...usually offering shots to welcome you, as well as to act as a primer for one of La Jefa's traditional Mexican beverages of style CDMX, which are exceptional! But all this pales in comparison to the food. OMG!!!!! The presentation is stunning...wetting your palette with a visual taste before you delve into Mexican cuisine prepared by a skilled chef...intimately acquainted with the complex nuisance required to mix and balance the myriad flavors in traditional Mexican gourmet...en mode. The whole experience from arrival to departure gives you the not only the taste, but also the feel, of México!

Amazing well crafted food. The owner/chef and his staff are excellent. This is a hidden gem that should be featured on the international stage as a "can't miss" location to visit when in CDMX

Part of me wants to tell you not to go here so it doesn't get discovered by the non locals who frequent here but I can't. Its hands down the best restaurant we've been to in CDMX. Best food, drinks and INCREDIBLE service. Wow. Just wow.

Everytime we eat and drink at La Jefa we leave very happy, fat and having made new friends. Christian and his team are the best! My favourite is the tostada de mixta.

They serve a 5-star cheeseburger. The meal includes soup, salad, the burger and dessert. First class food for a great price. I'll be back.

Delicioso todo, excelente presentación l! Todo lo hacen al momento y muy muy rico! Muy buen servicio! Es de mis lugares favoritos. Los sábados de mariscos son excelentes y entre semana el menú cambia diario! He ido más de 4 veces y lo que pidas, será garantía!
