Taro
A bit south of San Ángel on the main street leading to UNAM, this clean and simple restaurant has been serving some of the finest Japanese food in the city since it opened in 1980. Sushi and sashimi prepared exactly as it is in Japan is a highlight, but you'll also find an extensive menu of izakaya-style dishes: gyozas, chicken karaage, seafood teppanyaki, tempura vegetables, beef katsu curry, and a variety of udon and soba noodle dishes.
