The food at this restaurant was amazing, each dish bursting with flavor. The waiter impressed me with their professionalism and kindness. A highlight of our visit was the Mariachi music, which brought a vibrant and authentic atmosphere. Although the prices are a bit high, they're justified by the excellent location and top-notch service. Overall, the combination of great food, live Mariachi music, and attentive service made for a memorable dining experience.

This is a fun place to enjoy live mariachi music while overlooking Plaza Garibaldi. The musicians will play a song for a small few (150 pesos) which is worth the experience. I ordered the cheese fondue with chorizo and it was good as well. Service is quick and staff are pleasant, overall it was a good experience Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $200–300 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Excelente as always. Highly recommended. Also when going please check your promotions because there’s usually 2x1 cocktails deals. Also highly recommend el mocajete. Good for sharing for the price. Also waiter service is fantastic. My waiter jose was super excellent in taking my order and fast in being the food. Service Dine in Price per person $300–400 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
This place is historically significant for its ties to mariachi music in CDMX, its a cool experience where you'll be surrounded by mariachi bands and other musicians from Veracruz. Unfortunately the place has become a tourist trap, the food is fine, but not good. The service is quite poor, we had to ask for cutlery several times, and follow up on parts of our order several times. In our group of 5 the food arrived about 5 minutes apart Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5

The ONLY place to go in Garibaldi if you want to eat/drink in a place that won’t rip you off — mariachi bands make the rounds, buy a few songs and enjoy the raucous atmosphere. Food/drinks reasonably priced — great service, fun night! Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The extensive drink menu features a wide selection of beers, tequilas and mezcal, perfect for complementing your meal and enhancing the overall dining experience.

Talented musicians serenade guests with soulful melodies and infectious rhythms, creating an atmosphere of celebration and joy. The passionate performances captivate diners, providing a truly immersive cultural experience that sets Tenampa apart from other restaurants in the area. The attentive and friendly staff further enhanced our dining experience.

I went on Monday night around 21:00. The person at the door said Sunday was the other slow night. (Friday and Saturday being the busiest.) I had a great time. My advice is to eat before you come and just order beer. Pay with cash. Some of the other reviews complain of slow service and payment problems. The room has beer-hall seating and is noisy-fun. So taking large dinner orders and making complicated drinks would be difficult on a busy night. I came with cash for the bands. The prices are on the wall ($150MX for a group and $80MX for the soloist/duets.) This is not the lowest price that you could get out on the plaza, but the quality is better with the house bands at Tenampa. (I tried both outside on the plaza, and inside Tenampa.) The other reason to avoid the outside plaza is a sewer smell. Meal type Other Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The OG mariachi place. Inside is a bit loud with the people talking and competing bands playing. But super colorful and I loved all the original mariachis paintings. Outside it was fun to listen but the smell from the sewer was quite overwhelming. The food was okay as were the drinks. Would still choose this place just for the reputation.
To be honest I was a little disappointed. The history of the place is a tad overwhelming. And we were there during happy hours. I’ve had better mango margaritas and better strawberry margaritas back home. The mariachi bands playing table side were an interesting side show!

This was a whole experience!!!! We were seated right away, informed of the specials and given time to look over the menu. The food was absolutely amazing- there was a huge variety on the menu, authentic home style Mexican food that is well prepared and is hardy and flavorful! The atmosphere was loud, boisterous and filled with mariachis playing! THIS IS MEXICO! if you want to dive right in and embrace everything Mexico, come here and eat or have drinks. *Note-there are food and drink specials. The waiters should tell you the specifics on the drinks, but sometimes people miss those details and are upset when the specials don't show up on the bill. When our waiter brought the bill he had written the tip amount on the back of the receipt in case I wanted to include it with my payment. The prices were very reasonable service was impeccable! We started with a frozen margarita and a michelada, our drinks came out right away so we could drink and contemplate what we wanted to eat. I chose my favorite-pozole rojo and a side order of nopales. The pozole came out with all of the proper garnishes and tostadas, the nopales were cooked and seasoned perfectly. My bf got tacos de arrechera y consomé de pollo, and he said his food was excellent! We asked for more limes, Tajín and tortillas and everything was brought over right away. I will definitely be back! *Also note, when you get to plaza Garibaldi, you will get bombarded with people trying to get you to rent a mariachi and go to other restaurants, we had one guy go as far as to try to convince us that they were not selling food at this time!! DO NOT ENTERTAIN OR LISTEN TO THESE GUYS, THEY ARE SUPER ANNOYING AND IN YOUR FACE. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $200–300
