En Metxcalli nuestra inspiración es Oaxaca, multifacética y vibrante, que nos transporta a un viaje de infinitos aromas y sabores que activa nuestros cinco sentidos y evoca la grandeza de los mercados, la complejidad de sus mezcales y pluralismo de la cultura e identidad.
Nacido en costas oaxaqueñas, el Chef Gerson Madrid experimenta y plasma los colores de los sabores tradicionales, cual pintor a su lienzo y los caracteriza por trazos gruesos de contemporaneidad, llevándonos a través de una aventura de sabores que cuentan con personalidad propia, que nos evocan a nuestra tierra, a nuestra cocina al sur de Oaxaca y a nuestro propio hogar.
A lo largo de su trayectoria, el Chef ha recorrido la republica en busca de sazones y vivencias que complementan la experiencia Metxcalli.

    As non-Spanish speaking tourists, we had some trouble communicating with the wait staff and manager. Food was very good - but we didn’t find the place easy to navigate; the language barrier was an issue.

    We made a reservation with around 2 weeks in advance at 9:30 pm (which was the only spot left), we got there on time and the lady told us that service was already closed, she was really nice and it wasn’t really her fault, but why did the restaurant make a reservation at that time knowing they were gonna be closed? Why weren’t we notified about this in advance? We were excited to go but probably will never try to again just because of this.

    Had my birthday dinner yesterday, my first time there, and it was incredible! I had the tartare with grasshopper, tamalitos de frijol with huitlacoche, rib eye tacos with bone marrow, the Don Chente and Del Maizal cocktails (I hope I have the names right) and every single item was delicious, and beautifully plated generous portions. My server was attentive, friendly, spoke to me at length about ferments (one of my favorite subjects!). Highly recommend this restaurant!
