Where to Eat the Best Barbecue in Mexico City

Mexico City is a great place for foodies, and I discover something new and delicious every time I visit. On my most recent trip, I had the pleasure of meeting Ubish Yaren, a Mexico City tour guide, travel concierge and food expert who also shares his Mexico travel tips on Instagram and YouTube. He’s the type of guy you should know if you really want an insider’s advice about things to see and do in Mexico City.

I’ve always been a fan of Mexico City’s culinary scene. You can find just about anything — from tasty street food to decidedly upscale, world-class creations at multi-starred restaurants where you need a reservation weeks in advance. Regardless of your budget or your gastronomical preferences, Mexico City is always ready to surprise and delight the palate.

Ubish was good enough to share some of his insider knowledge to take me to what is quite likely one of the best places to eat barbecue in Mexico City. You’ll find all the details in my latest travel video , in which Ubish takes us on a visit to Barbacoa Renatos, an unpretentious, family-run restaurant that truly made my mouth water.

Ubish shows us why this is a great place to savor tasty Mexican food. But you’ve got to plan well, because it’s only open on Sundays! Watch the video to find out even more about this Mexico City restaurant’s specialties.

And don’t forget, if you’re visiting Mexico (or any other country outside the United States) during the pandemic, at least for now, you must take a COVID-19 test before re-entering the United States. You can check out my travel video that shows how to get a COVID-19 test in Mexico City here.
