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.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Gabriela Ruiz Lugo

From the OpenTable editors: Carmela y Sal is a charming gastronomic space that marries style with warmth in every corner.

Start with the tostadas de mentiras, followed by the fish ceviche, and the grilled pork. Don't miss the grand finale with plantains and dulce de leche. Pair your meal with a selection of wines or artisanal cocktails, and enjoy a standout gastronomic experience on the World's 50 Best list.

    Al igual que todas las opiniones aquí en Open Table que me llevaron a reservar en este lugar, la mía es para manifestar la excelente gastronomía de este lugar, sabores placenteros; pedidos el esquite risoto, los plátanos rellenos de frijol como entradas y de platos fuertes el lechón navideño y short rib. en chirmol, nada nos defraudó, de postre el mostachón (buenisimo) pero también nos trajeron de cortesía su pastel de chocolate sin harina ya que celebrábamos nuestro aniversario. La atención estuvo de 10 (nuestros platillos estuvieron rapido y nuestra mesa preparada a pesar que el lugar estaba lleno, claro que llegamos muy puntuales a nuestra hora de reservación. Baño limpio y agradable Sin duda es un lugar que repetiremos. Y el estar en la lista Michelin seguro lo hará acreedor a una estrella próximamente. Un aplauso a la chef y todo su equipo.

    Un lugar que destaca en todos los aspectos. La comida es simplemente deliciosa, con platillos que demuestran cuidado y sabor. En particular, la lengua es un verdadero manjar, preparada a la perfección y llena de sabor. El servicio es muy atento y profesional, haciendo que la experiencia sea aún más agradable. Además, el ambiente es acogedor y bien cuidado, ideal tanto para una comida tranquila como para una reunión especial. Por último, la relación calidad-precio es excelente, lo que hace que cada visita valga completamente la pena. Sin duda, un restaurante altamente recomendable.

    Cobran los carajillos como si fuera bebidas independientess el licor y el café; lo cual no ocurre con la rumchata. Se enfocan más en cobrar unos cuantos pesos por un expreso
