We sat at the Chef’s table, so basically you get a seat at the kitchen’s island, very near the stove, so you can look at every detail, the chef and the staff walk you through every detail of the dish they are preparing like the story behind, the inspiration and the meaning for them, it was an amazing experience, everything was delicious, and taste even better when you understand the work behind it.

We had a fantastic experience at Antolina! The food was top notch and the service impeccable. We had a lovely table inside and it was comfortable. Chips were served with three different types of salsa, all which were unique, tangy and delicious. We ordered the ceviche, which was hands down the best ceviche I've ever had. It was prepared with guava, passionfruit and mango, something I would never have anticipate, but it was unbelievably delicious. We also ordered the fried plantains which were served with mole and was another flavor burst! The roasted carrot salad was so delicious as well and the yogurt sauce added another dimension of tanginess and flavor. The cochinita pibil was flavorful and was served with the perfect amount of sauce. For dessert we had the buñelos with ice cream. They were a tad too sweet, but had a perfect crunch and flavor. We also ordered the tamale with poached strawberries, which we found to be bland. The only minor annoyance was an accordion player who was standing outside for about 10 minutes playing loudly. It conflicted with the music playing inside and we felt that the staff should have asked him to move on, but maybe it's a cultural thing. 100% would go back.
