Máximo Bistrot, also known as Máximo, is a Mexico City restaurant founded in 2011 by the chef Eduardo García and the restaurateur Gabriela López. Known for its daily menu and tasting menu, the restaurant offers dishes inspired by French cuisine techniques and made with seasonal Mexican ingredients. It emphasizes a farm-to-table concept, sourcing local ingredients, earning the restaurant praise for its dining approach. The restaurant was originally located in Tonalá Street, in Colonia Roma. In 2020, Máximo Bistrot was moved to a larger space on Avenida Álvaro Obregón, expanding its kitchen facilities and rebranding as Máximo. Despite the delay caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the restaurant grew to employ 120 people. In 2021, The World's 50 Best Restaurants gave the restaurant an award for its reinvention. In 2013, Máximo Bistrot became the focus of national controversy when the daughter of Mexico's consumer protection chief (PROFECO), attempted to bypass the reservation system and later prompted a temporary closure by PROFECO inspectors. The incident sparked public backlash over abuse of power, leading to the chief's dismissal and the sanctioning of several officials.
