The zona rosa konditori has been closed for several months. It's really too bad because it was part of the past elegant Scene. There is little left of the past elegance in the punk zone. Too bad!
This is one of the few older places that still survives the overwhelming decadence that linger on in the zona rosa, despite the continuous attempt of the city administration to bring this area of Mexico City to its old "splendour". The menu has typical Mexican dishes, but the presence of a high percentage of (foreign) tourists among the patrons reveals the non-authenticity of the food. Just like any other restaurant in popular tourist areas around the world, also this one serves average dishes for prices that are higher than other better places you may find just a few blocks away.
I have eaten here several times, but I always seem to get the same thing. Shrimp tacos. The lunch portion comes with 3 generously sized tacos, well seasoned and cooked, with nice garnish and salsa. They come with a side salad that is fresh and interesting. The restaurant has mostly outdoor seating in the main walking street in Zona Rosa, which is a great place to people watch. Yes, the occasional beggar or strolling guitarist may come by your table, but this is a part of this area of town, like it or not. Service has always been good, actually relatively fast for Mexico city. Prices are fair for what you get. There are lots of good places to eat on this street. Don't let the quirks scare you off.
My last day in Mexico City, my friend and I went to Konditori for lunch. It was a lovely setting in the Zona Rosa, watching people pass by... until the rain started! :-OThe service was great, attentive without being too much. The menu had a good selection and the food was delicious and worth it. There is also free WiFi, and you need to ask for the password.
