An old-school cantina in San Miguel Chapultepec that's part bar, part restaurant, serving traditional Mexican food and drinks with consistent quality over decades. Must-tries include the milanesa gratinada, salt-crusted fish, and tacos de lechón; margaritas are also very good. Service quality varies noticeably—some find staff excellent and friendly, while others report it can be unwelcoming.
