Eno

Eno sits in Polanco, and the room reads exactly the way the Mexico City dining establishment expects a modern mexican-american kitchen at this address to read — considered, particular, and exact about the things it cares about. Brisk Polanco brunch — egg sandwiches and serious coffee.

The cooking turns on signatures the Mexico City regulars order without looking at the menu: Egg & Ham Sandwich, Avocado Toast, and Carrot Cake. The kitchen runs at the $$ register, with a wine programme that is either deep where the room is loud and tight where the room is quiet, and a service floor that has clearly worked at this register before.

For a close a deal dinner in Mexico City, this is one of the addresses you should already know about. Reservations skew easy; dress is business casual. The averaged Food/Ambience/Value line sits at 8.8/10 — high enough to mean the room is doing more right than wrong, calibrated against the sharpest other tables in the city.
