Still one of the defining restaurants of contemporary Mexican fine dining. The tasting menus are highly structured, internationally known, and built around Enrique Olvera's long-running reinterpretation of Mexican ingredients and techniques.
Why It Belongs on the List
Pujol is Enrique Olvera’s flagship and one of the most internationally recognized restaurants in the Americas. The mole madre — a layered dish of fresh and aged mole, the oldest component now over 1,500 days old — has become one of the most discussed dishes in contemporary gastronomy. The main dining room serves a tasting menu; the taco omakase bar offers a more casual format. Polanco location. Book well in advance.
