Roma
Modern Classics
Where tradition and creativity share the same plate. Inventive yet grounded.
Overview
Roma's changed — it's trendier, busier, full of cocktail bars and thrift shops. But between all that, the tacos still hit. Every stop here has its own personality — a little creative, a little classic — the kind of food that makes you slow down, indulge, and maybe order one more just because you can. It's the kind of neighborhood that keeps you wandering — one taco, one mezcal, one story at a time.
What We'll Eat
and Why It Flows This Way
Mezcal Welcome
A small pour and a quick story to start things right. It opens the appetite, sparks conversation, and sets the tone.
Pork Belly Taco
Crispy, sweet, and rich; Asian-inspired but all CDMX. The "oh damn" bite that sets the tone.
Brisket / Suadero Taco
Slow-cooked brisket or suadero, their version of BBQ in CDMX — tender, juicy, and the kind of bite that makes everyone pause for a second.
Northern-Style Taco
Rustic and hearty — a nod to northern kitchens where slow-cooked barbacoa and dried-beef breakfasts meet, bringing a kind of comfort you don't often find in the capital.
The Wild Card
We keep this one a bit of a secret — and it always ends up being a crowd favorite.
Sweet Bite (Optional)
Cool, bright, and refreshing — the right way to wrap it all up.

Provecho Prep
When to Go
Just landed? Bags down? Perfect. Roma's the ideal warm-up — a walk, a drink, a few tacos to shake off the flight and ease into the city. Or maybe you've been here a few days and need an appetizer before a night out. Either way, this tour sets the tone: mezcal first, great tacos after, and plenty of suggestions for where to head next.
The Final Bite
Roma might look polished now, but behind the boutiques and cocktail bars are taquerías still doing things their own way. This route shows how creative twists and old-school flavors can share the same block — modern but grounded, the kind of tacos that remind you why CDMX still sets the standard.
