- One of the highlights of any visit to #mexicocity is dining at world-famous restaurant Pujol! The Mexican haute cuisine of celebrity chef/owner -- and Netflix darling -- Enrique Olvera is consistently rated as among the world's best, and we couldn't wait to get there after booking months in advance.
As expected, the food, service and ambience were amazing! In this video, we answer some of the key questions first-time diners will have for visiting #pujol, including dress code, when to book, how long the meal lasts, and price.
We went for lunch and ordered the tasting experiencing -- 6 courses. Here were our picks:
Lindsay:
Street Snacks (fixed)
Rice, scallop, mulato
Softshell crab, cucumber, daikon, shiso

OMG 4000 pesos! I almost fell off my chair! Great to see some luxury in Mexico City, i've never even heard of Pujol! Great video guys! 😉
Well for this type of restaurant it's actually pretty cheap compared to the rest of the world.
Actually very affordable, I've spend more than that in regular restaurants in Mexico for 2 meals.
4000 pesos or $234 for two people isn’t bad tho for the kind of restaurant it is
@@juangerardo9933 I like to think as “234 is not that bad for one of the best restaurants of the world”
My wife and I paid $480 on a dinner in Eiffel Tower in Paris and $320 in At.mosphere Restaurant in Burj Khalifa in Dubai. It was worth it, the food and the experience. Will make a reservation in Pujol and see how it compares. Nice video.
Thanks for watching Tony! And we agree on the value of an amazing dining experience. Hope you have a great time at Pujol! Let us know how it goes.
The servings actually look bigger than I expected. It all looks beautiful and worth it. The only thing, is..and I know it's not Michelin but the environment looks so chaotic and diners looked too close to each other but there's not much you can do to change that! Thanks for sharing. As an Aussie, it looks like it may be a while before I can dine there but I'm making good progress working through Olvera's first book!
Hi there! Thanks for watching. It was definitely busy when we were there, but we enjoyed Pujol's relatively informal approach. Fine dining but without the stiffness. Lots of buzz and action for sure! We hope you make it there some day! 😀
One Day! looks fantastic indeed. Great VIdeo, short and to the point.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much.
Wow, now that's an experience 😮Flying ant sauce and 5 year old Mole sauce base, totally new to us but sounds very interesting 😁Love the edit guys, especially the little walk away scene "Oh there's our grab" 👍
Leon and Tash Thanks guys! Lol. We were really excited to share this video. We had such a fun time at Pujol. It really was an experience! 😀
it is a fusion of prehispanic ingredients with modern cuisine, also the Chef Enrique Olvera, the best in Mexico, with michelin stars grows most of the vegetables and fruits used in his restaurant, it is a super great experience.
WOW!! That looks incredibly adventurous. And delicious!!
Treasure Hunt Travelers Thank you! It was so much fun to check this place out. :) The food was delicious and the restaurant was so beautiful!
Nice looking restaurant and the food looks so delicious and each dish is like a piece of art...Thanks for sharing...
Thirstytraveler41 Thanks for watching! Great description! Each dish really was a piece of art. And so amazingly delicious! :)
On the bucket list for sure. Pujol's mole is world famous.
Kevin Powell Hi Kevin! Thanks for watching. The mole was delicious. We definitely recommend checking Pujol out. I know we would go back for sure. 😁
Hey guys 👍😬 new episode yash! Oh wow the food is interesting , oh la la that crab!!! Deliciouss looking - place feels really chilled but the menu felt so classy and high class.
Enjoyed this food guide guys 😎👌- u know me food is 👌👌 life hahaha
234 usd for both seems pricey thats like 270 aud! 😱
but knowing that you got a full course meal it may have just been worth it!!
Nick Effendi Thanks Nick!! The restaurant was exactly that - really relaxed with awesome, unique and classy dishes! Love having and sharing cool food experiences like this. It was absolutely on the pricey side of things. But it was a really special experience so worth it for us! :)
Great video! I've never heard of that place before. I little too fancy for me. I am a major deal hunter. That's more money than I spend a month for food - even at home! Good on ya for being brave enough to spend that much though - I don't think I ever would!
Josh the Travel Guy Lol! Totally hear you and understand! This was kind of a once in a blue moon thing. We love street food and finding great and yummy deals too! :) So happy you enjoyed the vid!

Thanks for sharing! I have read a lot about this restaurant.
L Green Thank you for watching! The restaurant is really wonderful! Definitely worth a visit! :)
Hey guys you have to come to OAXACA you can found the best food in the world
Hi there! We're already planning our next trip to Mexico, and Oaxaca is on our list! I was in Oaxaca many years ago, but really looking forward to going back. I love the food there! -- Michael
One of the best cervices that I have ever had. Very creative of varieties of hot peppers. Photos available in blog.
Hi Elizabeth! Thank you for watching and checking us out. We agree! Pujol was one of the best services and dining experiences we have had. All of the dishes were very creative and tasty. What was your favourite dish? 😀
I made a reservation for July 27 I’m booking a month in advance and only was able to book bar seats and at 9:30 at night
Hi Paul! That is definitely a challenge with this popular restaurant. When we were there we did notice that the people at the bar seemed to be having the most fun! It was quite laid back and relaxed there which looked awesome. Hope you enjoy. :)
Great video 😄😁🙂
Holy!!! Some pretty strange looking food, but it looked amazing!
Judy Bomback Thanks!! Lol. The food was delicious. Very creative and beautiful takes on some classic dishes! We loved it there!
So the reservation you set months in advance only paid for your seat correct? The meal was separate and paid for there correct?
Hey William! It's been a while since we've been to Pujol, but we recall having to put down a small deposit for our reservation. However, the meal and drinks etc. was all paid for when we were there. Thanks for watching! Are you going to Pujol?
I am! Im going to be in the city for a few days and have always wanted to visit Pujol! Enrique Olvera is an inspiration for me, and this will be my introduction to fine dining😊
@@williamg4640 You're going to love it! It was even better than we were expecting. Some balk at the price, but it's not just the food, it's the experience. And the privilege of going to one of the world's best restaurants. Enjoy and stay safe!
@@HeGoesSheGoes and the experience, to me, is well worth it! Thank you guys!
Have you been to Pujol? Let us know how it went! Check out more videos from CDMX! ruclips.net/p/PLbB2plQhUYPl0qbgV0jrUb1XlPa5R4XP-
The total of 4,486 included the menu for both of you, drinks and service?
Hi Leonardo! That’s correct! Thanks for watching. 😁
@@HeGoesSheGoes Thanks!
Thanks for sharing! How much in USD is the tasting menu by itself without tax and tip?
Hey there, thanks for watching! The price includes tax and was 1,998 pesos per person, which currently translates to about $104 USD. The rest was tip and drinks. Hope that helps!
Nice! Is that price for each or whole
YUNJIK KIM Thanks for watching! That price is the whole price for both of us. 😀
🙂🙂🙂
Thanks Pepper!
yo fui ese mismo dia pero mas temprano :o
Adam Brooks Awesome! That’s so cool! 😎
@@HeGoesSheGoes algún día tendré un restaurante que deje a la cocina mexicana en lo mas alto🤠
Adam Brooks Love that! Sounds so awesome. 😃
Nice experience but... this is REALLY TOO MUCH $235 usd. With that money you could go to a Sonora Grill or Argentinean Steak House and eat twice.
Pol Daddy Thanks for watching! Definitely a lot of money. But our thinking was: How often do you get to eat at the 25th best restaurant in the world? We couldn’t help ourselves. 😀 For our next visit we’ll head to your recommendations.
Cave men you sound like my dad. Lol
@@HeGoesSheGoes couldn’t agree more. Thanks for sharing your video. Cant wait to visit Pujol once this pandemic is over !
@@juangerardo9933 Hi Juan! That sounds awesome. Thanks so much for watching! We had such a great time at Pujol. Hope you get a chance to go soon!! 😁
Súper caro!
pe pe ¡Sí! Pero muy delicioso! Lol. 😆
¡@@HeGoesSheGoes Genial amigos, son una gran pareja gracias por visitarnos!
At least say the name correctly
This place is grossly overrated.
