Best Japanese Restaurants in Escandón/San Miguel Chapultepec

Good food, great ambiance, and fantastic service. We enjoyed our visit to Ling Ling immensely. We had a great seat on the patio, with a view overlooking the city. Jose Luis was an exceptional waiter, providing service at a level that's hard to find - always there when we needed something, without ever making us feel like he intruded. The little touches, such as changing dirty plates between each course were greatly appreciated as well. The portions of each dish are small, which we appreciated - it allowed us to try several things without having to waste anything. And the white chocolate and raspberry desert was absolutely out of this world delicious! ;) (I also recommend the camaron crujiente, or crunchy shrimp)

I literally flew from the US to CDMX just to eat at this place; its Wayu Gyozas, atomic roll, and cocktails are my soul food.

The food is incredible and the staff is so nice and attentive. We called and they kept our table even though we were late due to traffic. And I just need to mention again how amazing the food is…you have to try a tuna flight, short rib gyoza, and a Ryoshi roll!

Best ceviche we ever had; other dishes excellent, too, and came out quickly, which made it easy to order a few rounds of small plates. Great service!

Animal (Polanco) was fantastic experience from start to finish! The service was spectacular and the food was as innovative and beautiful as it was delcious. This will be our first stop next time we come back to CDMX. What an absolute pleasure!
