From sushi, Singaporean food, and, of course, tacos, restaurants in Mexico City<\/a> have it all. For this week’s lookbook<\/a>, we dive into restaurant interiors in the city that utilise formal innovations and materials to showcase its world-class cuisine.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the city’s art week<\/a> just having passed, Mexico City art and design are front and centre.<\/p>\n

The eight restaurants below, opened in the last four years, showcase not only the beauty but the rigour of design in the city around something taken very seriously \u2013 food.<\/p>\n

But it’s not all tacos and terracotta; these restaurants vary in materials, styles and location, showing the breadth of style in the metropolis.<\/p>\n

This is the latest in our lookbooks<\/a> series, which provides visual inspiration from Dezeen’s archive. For more inspiration, see previous lookbooks featuring global wine bars<\/a>, shoji screens<\/a>, and home saunas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Makan by Locus<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Local studio Locus designed this Singaporean food restaurant to fit into a concrete<\/a>-framed space at the base of a mid-rise building.<\/p>\n

Remarkably, the studio managed to use 50 per cent recycled materials for the interior, which features built-in wood elements as well as screened<\/a>-in dining spaces.<\/p>\n

Los Alexis by RA!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This taco restaurant in the city’s Roma Norte neighbourhood was decked out by local studio RA!<\/a> in thousands of tile shards \u2013 a homage to the chef Alexis Ayala’s time spent in Barcelona.<\/p>\n

The compact space is centred by an open kitchen hemmed in by a steel-topped bar and a green<\/a>, ribbed material, with the scheme inverted to shroud the venting elements above.<\/p>\n

\u00d3rale Milanga by MYT+GLVDK<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This fast-casual restaurant is devoted almost entirely to the Milanese dish and features overlays of green metal and mesh throughout \u2013 from the sides of the bar to the extensive shelving<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Modernist-style tubular chairs with beige and olive leather reflect the colour scheme of the space, with mirrors<\/a> lining the walls to create visual expansion.<\/p>\n

\"Ninyas<\/a>

Ninyas by Ignacio Urquiza and Ana Paula de Alba<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The design scheme for this restaurant fuses its two main offerings, steak and sake, mixing Japanese and Mexican sensibilities.<\/p>\n

To find a commonality, the designers relied heavily on stainless steel. Wooden stools were given stainless-steel<\/a> footrests, and an earthy red floor provides contrast.<\/p>\n

Plumbago by OPA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Two gabled volumes covered in polycarbonate<\/a> panels on an infill lot create soft light for this recently opened Mediterranean restaurant in the city.<\/p>\n

The studio kept the main dining space open and lined it with cinder block and brickwork<\/a> that showcases various construction techniques.<\/p>\n

\"Savvia<\/a>

Savvia by Worc Studio<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The design in this tall-ceilinged space was implemented to reflect the cuisine, traditional and communal.<\/p>\n

Located in the historic core of the city, Savvia features a massive wood-topped communal table<\/a> with a circular chandelier above, with the kitchen<\/a> elevated to the second floor to create more space for diners.<\/p>\n

Oku Pedregal by Michan Architecture and Escala Arquitectos<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

One of two Oku sushi restaurants in this city, this most-recent outpost in the Jardines de Pedregal neighbourhood features teardrop-shaped dining areas partially suspended from the ceiling.<\/p>\n

The restaurant’s material palette is light, featuring pine<\/a>-clad surfaces, pigmented stucco<\/a> and GFRC panelling.<\/p>\n

Tana by RA!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This moody Polanco bar sells tapas and drinks in a compact, 65-square-metre space with heavily textured walls and concrete pendant lamps.<\/p>\n

The space is centred on a massive concrete bar created in the shape of an inverted pyramid, reminiscent of Aztec architecture.<\/p>\n
