50 Friends: Reviews & Ratings
We had a great first visit to 50 Friends last night. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We took a Nutella pizza to go after our meal and it was tasty too!
I came across this place while walking on Tamaulipas and looking for a place to have lunch. I was craving pasta bc I hadn't had it in a while. I decided to try this place after seeing you could "make your own pasta dish" by mixing/matching pastas with sauces. One disappointment I've had time and time again in Mexico City is the fact that pasta/Italian places are ridiculously overpriced and the pasta always disappoints (it's mushy, drowned in oil, frankly, awful).... this place actually knows how to cook their pasta so it is served "al dente"! Service is efficient, friendly and while one guy who served me could smile more (he looked a little perturbed from the start--not sure why), all in all, it's a good lunch spot. I would recommend it if you're craving Italian food. Their bread was exceptional! As are the oil-based dipping sauces they serve the bread with. I will definitely be back.
Amazing place! Best place for the best real pizza in CDMX Best service and house wine! I cannot drink new world wine, but they offered the best to my needs!!!!
I came here to celebrate a special occasion and it pleasantly surprised me. The Diavola pizza was amazing and the 4-cheese pasta as well. Luis was super nice and gave us great recommendations. I highly suggest you come here! The spot is also beautiful and very well located.
The riabatta was amazing as it was fresh, hot and very spicy. Fire dessert the tiramisu was nice and fluffy and not over the top sweet. Great place for a casual lunch
We absolutely love it here. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the meals are simply delicious. A special thanks to Maria for going above and beyond with her kindness and helpful recommendations for must-visit spots in the area. She truly made our experience unforgettable.
Mauricio, our waiter was amazing! We all had customized orders and he got all correct and went above and beyond! We also didn’t have to ask for anything but he made sure we were all taken care of! Food was also really good!!!
Excellent food, service and location! We ordered the mini paninis and four different pizzas. The ones with prosciutto are absolutely delicious! The Nutella pizza is a must. I’ve been coming here with my family for over 15 years. 50 friends never disappoints.
