About the restaurant
Paxia, founded in 2005 by Daniel Ovadía, revolutionized contemporary Mexican cuisine by combining innovative techniques with Mexico’s most emblematic flavors. Over the years, it became a culinary benchmark both in Mexico and internationally, pioneering the evolution of modern Mexican gastronomy.

Today, Paxia reemerges with a renewed vision under a more mature chef. The menu blends tradition and innovation, reflecting Ovadía’s personal growth. Each dish tells a story that captures the essence of Mexican cuisine with a sophisticated and unique twist.

The restaurant is located on the rooftop of Hotel Umbral, within the iconic Edificio España in Mexico City's Historic Center. With breathtaking views of the capital, Paxia offers a dining experience where gastronomy, architecture, and culture come together. Dining at Paxia is the ultimate way to experience Mexico!

A fantastic experience! Our waiter spoke very little English so ordering was exciting. The portions are generous, the food fresh and creative. The drinks, both alcoholic and nonalcoholic were delicious. Bravo!

Outstanding service, food, and selection . I do recommend sitting inside to avoid the dozen or so “street vendors” hawking you while you are trying to enjoy a meal.

About the restaurant
Carmela is not from here, but she is not from there either. Its cuisine is inspired by our lands, but its ingredients can be born anywhere. And besides, Carmela puts something totally unique in the pot. The salt of your life. In quantities that only her heart knows. Carmela cooks like at home. Surrounded by love, colors, textures and memories. What are you coming to eat? Feelings, but on the plate.

Beautiful space, spectacular views, excellent food and cocktails, and the service was polished and gracious. Dinner options are relatively few but they were excellent. We also had breakfast here several days and each time it was terrific. The experience was so good that we had dinner here a second night in addition to enjoying cocktails and dessert late at night looking over the lights of Mexico City every night as our "nightcap."
