CONDESA and ROMA NORTE drinks and snacks

[coryj]

Hi. Looking for nice, casual places in Condesa or Roma Norte for drinks and snacks in the evening. Would love to find a place with outdoor seating. Not expensive. Would also love to find a place that makes a great margarita tamarindo!

In the Condesa all you need is a stroll down Av. Michoacan starting at Nuevo Leon and heading west. This is a restaurant mile with outdoor seating and lots of pedestrian street traffic to watch.

My favorite Tamarind Mezcal Margarita though is Azul in Condesa by Chef Ricardo Munoz Zurita on Av. Nuevo Leon # 68 - sit at the terrace on the first floor and watch the street from above behid green fronds ...

Lucille's, on Calle Orizaba at Calle Colima , Roma Norte, may fill your needs. They had various olive plates and make a better than average pizza. There are specialty beers and there's outdoor seating. Prices are moderate for that neighborhood.
(It's within a stone's throw of Restaurante Rosetta and the Hotel Brick.)

Also look at Calle Orizaba south of Av Álvaro Obregón and on to Plaza Luis Cabrera for a scattering of outdoor restaurants, most of which I haven't tried.

Unfortunately, a friend relates that the Gelato e Neve place, near there has closed.

And keep heading south on Orizaba past Plaza Luis Cabrera for even more bars and cafés...they're small, funky, and generally have decent food too.
