This is yet another "old school" Spanish restaurant in Mexico City. While certainly worth a visit, especially on the weekend, when you can sit in the interior terrace, the food is rather drab. People do, however, like the roasted suckling pig and the paella. If you have a big appetite and are there on a weekday, you can order the... More

This restaurant was referred to us by a very friendly Chilango while we were waiting out a heavy rainstorm in a shopping area. We tried to go in the evening, but discovered that they were only open for breakfast and comida (main afternoon meal). So we went for the absolutely best breakfast of our month's stay in DF. The staff... More

Read mixed reviews about this place before leaving home. Despite having the address and finding the building, the actual restaurant is on the first floor at the back of the building and doesn't open until 1pm. The location was perfect for a mid-siteseeing stop off and the building itself worth the visit - beautiful glass ceilings, elaborate staircase, impressive toilets!... More

Casino Espanol, stayed open for us/full staff and bar for another 2 and a half hours!! We were told that this was our home, not to rush. We started with a platter of Spanish... More

I stumbled into this wonderfully civilized, very correct Spanish restaurant one rainy afternoon. The light and airy room was filled with families enjoying Sunday comida. Service was European style, very professional without being obsequious. I'd never understood how crisp, light and creamy croquettes could be. Paella Valencia was restrained to it's classic ingredients, mainly rice, saffron and red pepper. I... More

Right in the city historic center, the Casino Español is one of the prettiest buildings in town, and offers the best traditional Spanish food. Do not miss the cochinillo, it brought me back the memories of the Segovia restaurants. Tapas are also good. Good family atmosphere on weekends. The wine list is ok. It is definitely a sure bet.
