Fresh yellow-fin tuna is diced and mixed with serrano, cilantro, lime and a touch of jalapeño oil, then piled onto a griddled corn tostada with creamy avocado and sharp fried onion strings. The combination balances raw fish against textural crunch. A signature dish that appears often on the menu.
Tips from diners
Ask if the tuna is fresh today before ordering. Eat Me sources from reliable suppliers but quality varies by delivery.
Poblano peppers are roasted until the skin blackens, then peeled and cut into strips. Tossed with toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds), crumbly cotija cheese, crispy tortilla strips and a bright lime vinaigrette. The salad is fresh and vegetable-forward, a nice contrast to richer dishes.
Tips from diners
This is a fully satisfying vegetarian main, not just a side salad. Order it confidently.
Corn tortillas are crisped in the fryer and filled with chicken that's been slow-roasted over wood until the exterior is charred and the interior is tender. Finished with a dollop of Mexican crema and drizzle of salsa negra (a dark, rich mole-like sauce). Served in a set of three.
Tips from diners
These are best eaten immediately—order them early in the meal so they're still crispy.
A decadent dessert that ties the meal back to Mexico. Dense chocolate cake is served with a quenelle of Mexican crema and a fine dusting of ground mole negro spices (chile, chocolate, sesame, spices). The spices add complexity to the chocolate without dominating.
Tips from diners
Rich but refined. Pair it with mezcal or Mexican coffee for a proper ending.
Fresh egg pasta is filled with creamy quesillo de Oaxaca, aromatic hoja santa leaf and finished with browned butter, toasted breadcrumbs and a sprinkle of sea salt. The ravioli bridges Italian technique with Mexican ingredients—the soft cheese contrasts against the crispy breadcrumb crust.
Tips from diners
This is comfort food in pasta form. Order it alongside a lighter plate if you want balance.
Eat Me is Polanco's answer to late-night dining that moves beyond tacos.
