La Ventanita - 11850 Ciudad de México

Nice little secret place with locals and very chilled atmosphere and good food& beverages for valuable prices

Wow, where to start? We arrived at 3:30 pm for lunch, and were directed to sit at a table near the kitchen window. There were at least 10 waitstaff walking around, no wait list, and a few empty tables. A waiter took our order, and left. Regardless of the fact that the restaurant wasn't busy and we were seated in the very center of the venue, it took 20 minutes for someone to bring us our drink order, and only after we asked about the status. Only then did the waitstaff put in our food order, because the original waiter had forgotten to do so! At that point, I was shocked and began taking notice of the 10+ waitstaff and their behavior, they were just walking aimlessly around, and looking at their cell phones. This behavior continued throughout the 2.5 hours we were there (they were extremely slow to deliver our appetizer, main courses, second drinks, and even the check, then to return with the credit card terminal). Honestly the experience was so bad, there's no way I would ever suggest any friend to go there. The food flavor was nice, but honestly, why should we wait so long for it? I was really confused by how unprofessional the waitstaff team was, but we still left an undeserved 10% tip.

My friends and I stopped for some cold beers and had the huitlocoche pizza which the ingredients definitely came from a can. No real flavor and service was slow.

Really nice place to hangout. They have nice breakfast and after good italien food

La Ventanita is a beautiful indoor/outdoor restaurant that we visited after touring Casa Gilardi. It happens to be convenienly located a short walk around the corner and we tried a few dishes, got some drinks and had a beautiful afternoon. Atmosphericly, it's tranquil and inviting, with live plants hanging from the ceiling and design elements that are dialed in, you feel at peace in the space. The service is good and attentive, but they don't serve food until 12:30pm, so don't show up before and expect to be served lunch.

Got some enchiladas and chilaquiles and they both had good taste even if they could've been a bit spicier for my taste. Coffee was good and prices are adequate.

We went there for breakfast. The place is beautiful, tucked away with lots of hanging plants. A good place to start the day. I’d give 5stars for the atmosphere. I took out one star because of the food. It wasn’t bad or anything it just felt that portions were a little small and not that filling. We got the glazed pancetta and baby pancake. They have a lot of things on the menu though so you can probably find something better. The juices were sooo good. Really fresh and yummy. Side note: it looks like this place is called cancino now but it’s the same place you see on google maps as La Ventanita.

Honestly, it's really cute inside and very comfortable atmosphere! However, the service is slow and my plate was cold cold cold! My friend described the "green sauce" as chemical-tasting. The potatoes were kind of bland too. The juices are good, the coffee is good, but the food does not match the presentation.
