Wow! I am still in disbelief that there's this quality if middle eastern food in Mexico. I honestly forgot I was in Latin America the whole time. I loved everything, but the best thing was the knafeh dessert. You must try it.

Amazing place, great service, very authentic and fresh food. Highly recommend if you like middle eastern food. Prices were very reasonable for the neighborhood.

Good Lebanese food. Came here to celebrate a birthday and the staff really went out of their way to make it special. They played birthday music and created a beautiful birthday celebration presentation by decorating the table and putting the candles I brought on the pieces of cake we purchased for dessert. Fantastic service!

A great classic Lebanese restaurant in Mexico City. For decades they have maintained a high quality menu that includes all the main traditional dishes of Lebanese cuisine such as kibbe, hummus, stuffed vine leaves. The dessert selection includes traditional Lebanese sweets and now they have added a couple additional options. They have valet parking for 2 USD.

The food is amazing, since we were a party of 14 we ordered two Mezzas #5 and that was more than enough for all of us. The service is superb, the staff is attentive, prompt and courteous. The atmosphere was ok, a bit busy for my taste.

Well, I can't put into words how glad I was for going to this restaurant, This restaurant, out of the 1000's of restaurants I visited in over a dozen countries I lived in and visited, is genuinely the best I have ever been to, all of the food I tried here was absolutely perfect, and the service couldn't have been any better, and the atmosphere was Lebanese without shoving it in your face, every aspect was a 10/10 at least, and I have been to michelin star restaurants! Please, and I can't stress this enough, Please try this restaurant. You really couldn't go wrong with this one!

Gruta Ehden was a joy to experience. From the service to the food, our lunch here was perfect from the start. Typically I have at least some piece of critical feedback after visiting a new restaurant, but this was a pretty perfect experience. Definitely the best and most authentic Lebanese food in Mexico City.
