among the best in Mexico City, Jaso has several outstanding dishes. Try foie gras ravioli, or chicken in heavy cream. IT has a very nice terrace, and for a romantic evening you can reserve the wine cellar for a couple, with a tasting menu that will prove to be amazing.

What I love about Jaso is that it's a top 3 restaurant in Mexico but doesn't have the pretentious vibe of its peers. The food is inventive and fantastic, the tables on the terrace create a cozy but trendy vibe, and the service welcoming. It continues to serve as my go-to spot for out of towners because it does everything... More

The ambiance is really fine neat and contemporary... but the wine list has not so many nice medium price choices and as we were in seven we indicated a wine to the sommelier that came back with other 50%more expensive choice and I consider this a basic mistake ... I have ordered a LOMITO that was a litlle dry and... More

Chefs JAred and SOnia (JA-SO) graduated from the CIA (no, they're not spies! I mean the Culinary Institute of America). They've worked at Bouley and Jean Georges, both worldwide known iconic restaurants so you can start to imagine the quality and impeccable food you'll be getting at JASO. Highly recommended the "tasting"menu. Just let the maitre know your food restrictions,... More

We've traveled all over the world and eaten in spectacular restaurants from Napa Valley to Paris France. Jaso would stand up to any of them. The service and food were impeccable. The atmosphere was serene and inviting. It was our favorite restaurant in Mexico City

We ended a fantastic week in Mexico City with a dinner at Jaso! It was the perfect ending to a great week in the cosmopolitan city. We were visiting a friend who lives there and has been to Jaso and he wanted to share the 'Jaso' experience with us. We decided to try the 'Tasting' dinner. Which is a 5... More

If you are looking for a world class meal with service to match, do not miss Jaso. It is among the best restaurants at which I've eaten, and the service is the best I've experienced in Mexico City -- maybe anywhere. I've had good salmon in many places, but this was the best salmon I've ever had. I highly recommend... More
