I'm going to be taking a business trip down there in a month for business, and I want to make sure I experience the city. Also, I want to ride around in a <a href="http://www.MXCityCar.com" rel="nofollow">Mexico City limo</a> because I heard that it is the way to travel! Any ideas on good companies?Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791509250657242397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-72018945710448690942011-03-09T16:43:48.100-06:002011-03-09T16:43:48.100-06:00So there you go...can't please all the people....So there you go...can't please all the people...I don't agree with Anonymous' assessment of the food, but I have noticed that the service can be a bit aggressive at times. Leave those plates for a minute or two so we can sauce-sop! Perhaps Mme. Rosetta should slip her wait-people a mickey or two.Nicholas Gilmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830656152832840826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-15392445413778030002011-03-09T15:20:16.183-06:002011-03-09T15:20:16.183-06:00Honestly, Rosetta is just overrated. Some of the a...Honestly, Rosetta is just overrated. Some of the appetizers are ok and the bread is certainly good, but the service is a joke. Went there for my birthday with 10 of my friends and there were 3 or 4 waiters dancing around the table. Still, it took them about 40 minutes to bring the main course, and when it came, well, it was nothing spectacular. We practically ordered everything in the menu and there wasn't anything actually remarkable. The risotto a la gorgonzola was just decent and the Robalo was ok but that's that. <br /><br />2 out of 5 for me. Not coming back. And the wine list is just ludicrous (I mean, German white wine, really?) <br /><br />Quite a disappointment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-75187074043089246782011-03-01T23:18:27.904-06:002011-03-01T23:18:27.904-06:00Okay, so tonight we went to Rosetta, forewarned wi...Okay, so tonight we went to Rosetta, forewarned with the previous comments, and the service was attentive, the table was in a good location and the food was really great (Papardelle with chicken livers, yum)and the cannoli was delish. We thought the wine list was varied and the surroundings lush.

We were the first in the restaurant and had a table opposite the toilets. We asked whether we could change and they said no. Later other couples came and were at better tables. We found some of the wait staff very supercilious, which also detracted from the experience.<br />As regards standing round talking, we had the same experience. It took ages to get a menu and there was no one else in the place!Niamhnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-66215873700962705282010-07-28T16:56:23.357-05:002010-07-28T16:56:23.357-05:00Today I walked over to Broka, only to discover tha...Today I walked over to Broka, only to discover that they are on vacation until next week. Plan B was to go to Rosetta. I walked to Rosetta, arriving at 2:30 pm (perhaps I should have arrived in a limo). Three-fourths of the tables were not occupied, and many of the dining room and kitchen staffs were standing around talking. I requested a table for one person and was told unapologetically that it was not possible. Plan C was Stampa del Mar, on the corner of Puebla and Orizaba, were I received a warm welcome, a nice table, and a complimentary glass of wine. It is unlikely that I will return to Rosetta, but I will definitely go back to Stampa del Mar.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15061073100685188974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-54752612054720022302010-07-08T04:37:36.770-05:002010-07-08T04:37:36.770-05:00We stopped by Rosetta a couple of weeks ago to buy...We stopped by Rosetta a couple of weeks ago to buy bread. The sourdough rye was superb. I got a lof of raisin and nut bread for friends but haven't heard how they liked it.<br /> <br />We were also impressed by the airy dining space. Two diners were having an tempting octopus carpaccio that was arranged very attractively .<br /><br /> Rosetta is high on our list for our next visit.<br /><br />Saludos,<br /> Don CuevasDon Cuevashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13512081335891808593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-25320906450935463022010-05-03T11:20:40.264-05:002010-05-03T11:20:40.264-05:00So glad to know about this!
