Cantinetta del Becco

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Roman Seal of Approval in Mexico City

Cantinetta del Becco sits in the basement of Torre 1 on Avenida Javier Barros Sierra, in the heart of Santa Fe — Mexico City's sleek corporate and residential corridor. It is the kind of address that rewards those who seek it out, and its 2024 Gambero Rosso two-fork recognition confirms that the effort is well worthwhile. The Gambero Rosso guide, Italy's most authoritative voice on Italian food and wine, does not extend that distinction lightly — least of all to restaurants operating thousands of kilometres from the peninsula.

Part of the Becco Family

The restaurant carries the Becco name, shared with Grupo Becco, a hospitality group with a clear commitment to Italian dining in Mexico. That lineage matters: it signals a kitchen and cellar held to consistent standards, where the integrity of Italian cooking is taken seriously rather than adapted beyond recognition.

What to Expect

Details from the restaurant's own channels remain spare, but the Gambero Rosso two-fork rating speaks to a dining room that delivers on both food and service — the guide's fork scale weighs the full experience, not the plate alone. Guests visiting Santa Fe for business or otherwise will find in Cantinetta del Becco a reliable destination for Italian cuisine executed with care, in a setting that matches the polished surroundings of its neighbourhood.
