Lucho Martinez's one Michelin star restaurant in Hipodromo Condesa
Em is chef Lucho Martinez's restaurant at Amsterdam 76 in Hipodromo Condesa. It grew out of Emilia, his earlier restaurant, and moved here from Tonala in Roma Norte. Martinez took one Michelin star in the first Mexico guide in 2024 and holds it in the current guide, and Em also appears on 50 Best Discovery for Latin America.
The kitchen works a contemporary Mexican line built on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, with a lot of seafood. Recent plates have included grilled young corn in a coffee and browned butter sauce, a tostada topped with Veracruz-style fish stew, shaved avocado and caviar, and a mamey dessert served as a Swiss roll and a frozen tartlet. Reservations are for the main dining room, for parties of two to seven, or for the counter at the open kitchen, which takes one or two guests.
Service runs Wednesday through Sunday from 4 PM to 9:30 PM, and the restaurant is closed on Monday and Tuesday.
