Red Kitchen KC

My friend and I had lunch here on 7.23.25, and we love it! Alejandra, the owner, was very helpful in placing my order. I explained that I am celiac and wanted to know if the chips were fried in a dedicated fryer. She verified that they were fried in a small, separate fryer just for the tortilla chips. Score! 🙌 I ordered the Chilaquiles and they are SPICY HOT! (In all fairness, she did warn me, and she was not kidding.) They were delicious and I did not get sick. I did take tums for the spice. LOL I felt so comfortable with how she explained her protocols for avoiding cross contamination. I think she said she could alter some of the things they were not marked GF, but not totally sure. I also want to add that she came out while we were eating and visited with us. She is a DELIGHT! I got the 411 on how she named the restaurant and all sorts of things. She wants people to know that her food is 100% authentic Mexican food. They are her recipes she brought with her. Since my friend and I were there visiting a while, she brought out two versions of flan for us to try that her mother made. It’s not on her menu, but if it was, I would buy it! Things you need to know before you go: look for the pink/red flowers in front of her restaurant. Inside seats 48, but there is also seating outside. It’s just north of The Peanut. Also, they are not open past 2 pm and closed on Tuesdays.

I can't say enough about how much we love this spot for the excellent Mexico City cuisine and hospitable staff. The high quality ingredients and authentic recipes set Cien Por Ciento apart from similar spots. We've eaten through the majority of their menu and have had no misses. I recommended dining in, especially for things that are covered in salsa, but if you have to do take-out, burritos and tamales are great options. Every protein from chicken, chorizo, asada, etc. are cooked and seasoned to perfection. Plenty of options for those avoiding gluten and for vegetarians as well. 10/10 would recommend!
