Aguila y Sol

Frommer's Review

One of Mexico City's most sophisticated and acclaimed restaurants is also one of the best Mexican restaurants you will find in the world. Chef-owner Martha Ortiz's enchanted cuisine matches indigenous and pre-Hispanic ingredients to contemporary creations, leaving you the sense that an outing to Aguila y Sol is as much an artistic as a dining experience (Ortiz has designed a number of excellent cookbooks on sale at the restaurant). Among the delectable selections are duck mole, salmon in a maize crust, pork loin with gingered mango, and seared tuna with smoked chile. An outstanding wine list accompanies the exotic menu. Dishes are carefully presented but not overly big. The beautiful space reflects soft Mexican colors and is casually elegant, and the clientele includes some of the city's best-known personalities.
