El Charco de las Ranas, Mexican restaurant in Mixcoac, Ciudad de México, Mexico.
El Charco de las Ranas is a Mexican restaurant with three locations across Ciudad de México, including the main branch on Avenida Río Mixcoac in Mixcoac. The space features a casual setting where traditional Mexican dishes are prepared and served throughout the day.
Established in 1996, the restaurant grew from a single location into a network of three branches across Ciudad de México. This expansion reflects how the traditional approach to Mexican cooking connected with diners over the years.
The menu reflects Mexico's regional diversity through dishes like pozole, sopes, and alambres prepared using traditional cooking methods that guests can often see in action. These recipes carry the tastes of different parts of Mexico to every table.
The restaurant stays open until 2 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, while closing at midnight from Sunday through Thursday. Plan your visit based on these hours if you prefer dining late or want to catch it on weekends.
Each of the three locations operates its own kitchen while following the same traditional recipes to maintain consistency. This approach allows local cooks to bring their own touch to the dishes while keeping the core quality and taste the same across all branches.
