Overpriced for what you get. Place is loud do to music playing not because of being busy or customers. I got the waygu top sirloin with Maine lobster tail and it was mediocre at best.

Nice restaurant. The ambience was nice. I didn’t realize it was inside a hotel but it was okay. The guacamole was really good and fresh but needed more tostadas because it was a big portion. The drinks we ordered were good also. My food lacked flavor for me. Our waiter was nice and attentive. I will go back for the drinks and appetizers in the future.

The dinner at Polanco was pretty good. I have tasted Carnitas at many restaurants. This dish was good but not great. The dish was barely warm. The Carnitas meat was good but the beans were not appetizing and the rice was bland. I feel that more could be done with this dish. Others in the party enjoyed their dishes.

Maybe its the middle of the week staffing, but it took a full 10 minutes to get drinks which is atypical for a steakhouse. Medium rare steaks become medium. At least I let the kitchen know. Overall, it feels the quality has gone down since we were here last. Probably won't come back.
