The Scene – Counterculture minimalism meets Oaxacan folk art, with Day of the Dead figures, piñatas and vibrant expressionist murals. – – The Food – Sure, the gringo standbys are all here, but savvy diners flock to Mexico City for its regional entrees like the blistering camarones enchipotlados (shrimp in tomatillo and chipotle sauce) and the tangy pollo mole verde (chicken in pumpkin seed, cilantro and green pepper sauce).

Worst Mexican Restaurant in Los Angeles
by laperson
This was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. From the moment we arrived the hostess was a totally rude and condescending. She ruined our night. She was on some surreal power trip towards everyone waiting to eat. This place is definitely not trendy any more and looks like a dump. I would rather eat at Del Taco. The service is much better and the customers and employees are treated with dignity.

Awesome Mexican Food with Homemade Taste
by davidarnerich
Authentic, mouth watering dishes that have a distinct homemade taste which is often so hard to find at Mexican restaurants in LA. Great service from nice friendly staff. It's a fun place to drink sangria, get a little rowdy, but all with good humor. I highly recommend it for any one looking for the best Mexican food in Los Feliz.
- Pros: Great Sangria and not too expensive
- Cons: It's a little loud but sometimes that's good right?

Nice Crowd
by mikeandbrian
I have never had a bad time at Mexico City. It has a great diverse crowd, no attitude, great waiters like
Victor, and good food. It's like going out and going home.
- Pros: Fun
- Cons: You hate to leave
The Details on Mexico City
When to Go:
Order fresh tamales during autumn and spring. You can get either chicken tamales wrapped in green corn or black mole tamales wrapped in banana leaves.
Know Before You Go:
Think you can handle the heat? Poblano peppers grown in the cooler months are hotter than normal, so beware of dishes featuring them in autumn and winter.
