The story
In Mexico City’s Roma Norte neighborhood, La 89 occupies a modest corner on Colima Street. The dining room is understated, with clean lines and a relaxed pace that feels more like a local gathering spot than a formal destination. The focus is on Mexican food that is both accessible and carefully prepared – the kind of place where the kitchen’s confidence shows in the simplicity of each plate.
The Bib Gourmand recognition from Michelin for 2026 underscores the value here: good quality, good value cooking. That means dishes that are satisfying without pretension, using fresh ingredients and traditional techniques. Without a menu in hand, it’s fair to say the strength lies in the balance of flavors and the consistency of execution.
For visitors to Mexico City, La 89 offers a genuine taste of Mexican home-style cooking in a setting that feels both unhurried and genuine. It’s a spot to return to, not for novelty, but for reliability.
