Reviews
The prix fixe menu leans strongly vegetarian, showcasing the chef’s sophisticated technique and creativity with vegetables. Each dish delivers complex, nuanced flavors that remain finely balanced. The roughly ten-course menu is served in very small portions, offering a varied experience that never feels heavy. A thoughtful touch: for diners still hungry after the main sequence, the kitchen offers several additional vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes to pick (one) from at no extra cost before dessert.
The restaurant itself is beautiful, set inside a traditional El Pedregal house built with volcanic stone, which adds character and a strong sense of place.
A memorable, well-executed fine dining experience that delivers on craft and atmosphere.
We started out with “infladita de pulpo”, another octopus dish and some asparagus. All three of those dishes were great. I then had the Oaxaca tamale soup, which I found very interesting and tasty.
The highlight of the night was “lengua de res”, which was superb and abundant (shoutout to our waiter who boldly recommended this dish).
We had two desserts, one which slightly disappoint me (strawberry and lavender) and the other one which was absolutely delicious (chocolate cake).
Overall this was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely recommend for dinner with friends or to celebrate a special occasion.
First, the service was truly wonderful. The staff was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely warm. Every need was anticipated, setting a perfect tone for the evening.
The food itself was very good, and I have great respect for the chef’s clear creativity and technical skill. However, given the reputation and the price point, I found myself analyzing the details more closely, and a few things held the meal back from being truly transcendent.
My main critique lies with some of the ingredient choices. While the creativity was evident, the pairings didn’t always land. A dish of salmon roe with papaya, for example, felt like the fruit overwhelmed the delicate seafood rather than complementing it. I felt this pairing could have been executed in a much more balanced way.
Furthermore, there was an unexpected theme that dominated the entire tasting menu: sweetness. From the appetizer, through the main course, and naturally into the dessert, the sweet flavor profile was overpowering. It became repetitive and, by the end of the meal, had unfortunately masked the nuance of the high-quality ingredients.
Overall, this was a 4-star experience: wonderful service and creative, high-quality food. But it didn’t quite clear the high bar set by its own reputation, largely due to a lack of balance in flavor.
We had the tasting menu. There were a couple of dishes I adored, some that were okay yet insipid like a slice of tomato with capers that had no taste or creativity, but what really was terrible was that two of the dishes I simply could not eat, and one of those was what was supposed to be the final dish—a horribly salty and badly cooked bacalao. Then they gave the option of ordering another protein (after a mostly vegetarian menu) which I thought was not a classy move, but I ordered it and at least I got what I considered was the best dish of them all (a really good duck with mole) so it saved my experience.
The restaurant is okay, but it thinks more of itself than what it really is. And it is too expensive and inconsistent for what they offer. I would not come back.
The tasting menu lacked cohesion and progression. The food lacked soul and was as though the restaurant was imitating “Michelin dishes” rather than presenting a thoughtful, original vision/concept. Flavor-wise, the food somehow was both extremely bland and overly salty. Desserts were forgettable and lacked any meaningful flavor.
Service felt disengaged throughout the evening. Dishes were described with minimal detail (less than 5 words) and with little enthusiasm. No one acknowledged us as we left the restaurant even though we walked by the whole staff.
Execution was inconsistent. One dish contained a fish bone, and the attempt to address it was underwhelming: we were offered an optional course already included in the menu, which then became unavailable and had to be substituted, without a sincere apology. Drink orders were also incorrect.
The experience felt completely transactional and (literally) left a bad taste in my mouth. I have no idea how Sud 777 received a Michelin star – if it once met that bar, it appears to have completely lost its way.
The tasting menu highlights the ability to transform the earth into art on your plate and we had the wine paring that featured all Mexican wines. We left saying that we felt like we were one with the land (in a non cheesy way) since the dishes and wines were all local and all expertly paired. One area we also noted was that this was a true tasting with plenty of little dishes to really experience the culinary art. Service and attention to detail at Sud 777 was attentive and knowledgeable, with staff eager to guide us through the experience and recommend perfect pairings. The atmosphere, contemporary design, and commitment to celebrating Mexican ingredients ensure Sud 777 remains a must-visit for food lovers in Mexico City—especially those looking for a refined gastronomic adventure beyond the city center.
We were given the tasting menu without any other option, which was 3000 pesos a person. An online search seems to suggest this may be the only option for foreigners. The tasting menu was a series of emulsified vegetables (baby food), leaving us hungry and unsatisfied. When we saw other dishes going out to tables, we asked and came to learn that there was an amazing looking à la carte menu. We expressed our dissatisfaction and the manager said there was nothing they could do. We were then blamed for moving tables. They offered to bring another serving of the one carne option – 3 slivers of duck (albeit the best 3 bites I had all night). The server did not address any of these issues.
The service was messy and poorly coordinated. Our server had no idea what was going on most of the night.
For those with allergies, be careful. They seemed attentive to my dairy allergy, until the last dessert. When I asked if there was butter in the cookie, he told me there was no gluten. Clarification only led to more confusion. I did not eat the dessert.
