Quintonil

Quintonil ([kin.toˈnil]) is a contemporary Mexican restaurant in Polanco, Mexico City, Mexico. It is owned by chef Jorge Vallejo and manager Alejandra Flores, a couple who met while working at the fellow diner Pujol in 2009. Two years later, they left to open an eatery with a concept centered on "welcoming customers and bidding farewell to friends".

Quintonil opened in 2012 along Newton Street as a casual restaurant with a daily menu, operating with secondhand furniture and tableware. Over the years, the dishes evolved into fine dining. The spot is named after a species of Mexican amaranth and offers both à la carte options and a seasonal tasting menu prioritizing heirloom vegetables, native herbs, and insects, most of which are sourced from across the country.

Quintonil has received positive reviews from food critics along with several culinary accolades. The business has appeared in the list of the World's 50 Best Restaurants since 2016, rising to number three in 2025, when it was named the best of North America. It also was awarded two Michelin stars in 2024, in the first Michelin Guide for Mexico, becoming the highest-rated restaurant in the country, alongside Pujol.
