Reviews
Fermentation plays a beautiful role throughout the experience, adding depth, freshness, and complexity without ever feeling forced. The non-alcoholic pairing deserves special praise—creative, well balanced, and clearly treated with the same respect as a wine pairing. The strawberry tepache was a highlight: vibrant, precise, and perfectly matched with the dishes.
The dessert was also very interesting and memorable—original, surprising, and a perfect conclusion to the menu, showing how far creativity can go when technique and sustainability meet.
Service was excellent: warm, attentive, and knowledgeable, making the whole experience feel relaxed yet refined.
A restaurant with real identity, strong values, and outstanding execution. Highly recommended.
Overall this place is very enjoyable. The food is of great quality and the service is friendly, quick and very attentive.
I would definitely recommend for a nice dinner and I cannot wait to be back.
The menu guides you through an extraordinary gastronomic journey. From the house-made fermented beverages to the depth and precision of flavors in each dish, the experience is unlike any other restaurant I have visited. Every element feels intentional, refined, and deeply connected to place.
As a chef, what resonated most with me is Baldío’s commitment to a true zero-waste system. This practice does far more than reduce waste—it amplifies flavor, adds complexity, and challenges conventional ideas of modern cuisine. By transforming byproducts into something meaningful and delicious, the kitchen opens your mind to endless creative possibilities while maintaining integrity and purpose.
Baldío is not only a restaurant, but a statement on what thoughtful, responsible, and inspired cooking can be. I am genuinely inspired by this experience and will carry its influence with me throughout my career.
Bread and a spread would have helped, as would a written menu, especially since the restaurant was quite loud. We also weren’t aware that only one substantial course would be served and would have gladly ordered more if asked. Small gestures like these would greatly improve the overall experience.
While the savory dishes impressed, the beverage program and desserts truly elevated the meal. The seasonal tepache — a traditional Mexican fermented beverage — deserves special mention. Baldío’s creative interpretations, particularly the tamarind and guava variations, deliver a complex interplay of tang, sweetness, and effervescence that feels both rooted in tradition and refreshingly contemporary.
The house-made kombucha is equally noteworthy: expertly fermented, well-balanced, and brimming with nuanced flavor. The care in their fermentation process is evident in every sip.
We enjoyed our first visit so much that we returned weeks later (no reservation) specifically for drinks and dessert. Seated outside at the open window bar, we savoured both the view into the kitchen, bar and engaging conversation with the knowledgeable team. Once again, the tepache and desserts proved impeccable — the perfect light indulgence for an afternoon.
Beyond the exemplary food and beverages, what distinguishes Baldío is its unwavering commitment to zero-waste practices. As one of Mexico City’s pioneers in sustainable gastronomy, the restaurant thoughtfully integrates environmental responsibility into every aspect — from ingredient sourcing to final presentation — without sacrificing creativity or quality. It’s a rare marriage of culinary innovation and ethical consciousness.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking progressive, sustainably-minded cuisine in one of CDMX’s most forward-thinking establishments.
We sat at the counter and loved watching each beautiful plate being prepared. I started with a prickly pear fermented juice, so fresh and delicious. We shared several small plates including the ceviche, chorizo, esquites, and pumpkin, and each dish somehow topped the last.
By the time we finished, we were full but couldn’t resist ordering double dessert instead of a main, and they were just as outstanding. If you have the chance to eat here, don’t miss it. I’m sure you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu!
I was first blown away in Sept 2024, but now their chef has changed and sadly most of that menu won’t return. Fortunately as of Sept 2025, the new chef and menu are just as amazing.
Food — The ingredient sourcing is from the ancestral chinampas (floating gardens) in south CDMX, so the vegetable quality is stellar. Almost everything is cooked over coals or fire. Every single dish we tried was spectacular:
• The corn focaccia is easily the best in the city.
• The vegetables dish had the best pipian verde I’ve tried.
• The curry mole dish tasted like a better peanut satay sauce
• The tamarind mole with pork was rich, fatty, savory, not chocolatey or too sweet, and comes with kimchi and sriracha.
Drinks — You absolutely cannot miss their homemade non-alcoholic drinks. The tuna verde tepache, the strawberry & honey tepache, and the chamomile & lemongrass kombucha were all fantastic.
Service — Very friendly and warm. The interior decor is beautiful. Sit at the counter so you can watch the kitchen work its magic.
Accessibility — Easy to book on OpenTable or just walk in on most days. The restaurant is very well priced for the fine dining quality & service.
