Terraza Cha Cha Cha · Rooftop Bar · Mexico City
Tropical terrace facing the Monumento a la Revolucion
Terraza Cha Cha Cha sits on the top floor of a building on Avenida de la Republica, a block from the Monumento a la Revolucion, and that monument is what you look at. The vast stone arch and its copper dome fill the view from the terrace rail, floodlit after dark, with the Tabacalera rooftops and the Reforma towers stacked behind it. Very few rooftops in this city put a single landmark this close to the table.
The room is tropical and loud in the best sense. Palm and banana leaf, striped awnings, bright tile, a long bar anchoring the middle and a crowd photographing all of it. Service runs from a long lunch through to a late dinner with the music building through the evening, and it is one of the most consistently full terraces in Mexico City, so a table without a booking is rare on a weekend.
The kitchen is contemporary Mexican and takes itself seriously, from the same group behind Cha Cha Cha in San Angel and Palmares in Roma Norte, and the drinks list leans hard on agave. Hours are 1 pm to midnight Monday through Saturday, with a daytime-only service from 10 am to 7 pm on Sunday. Sunset is the hour everyone wants.
Book through the restaurant's own OpenTable page.
