I'm planning a vacation to Mexico City and I'm looking for some restaurant recommendations that are safe for someone with celiac disease. I've heard it can be challenging to find gluten-free options in the city, but I'm hoping to find some specific suggestions or places that people know are safe.

My family and I will be visiting in March and wanted to go to La Gruta while on a daytrip to the Teotihuacán pyramids. It looks like the meals are not well reviewed but we do want to experience the atmosphere of La Gruta. Do you think it would be OK for us to go just for dessert, or are there any rules around that sort of thing?

I'm visiting Mexico City for a week and staying in the Norte area near Marriott Reforma. I'm looking for good vegan friendly restaurants in the area, preferably within walking distance, as I'll be arriving late in the evening. I'd also like to know if it's safe to walk back from the Mexico Arena to Reforma at 11 PM on a Friday after a wrestling event.

I've been visiting Mexico City every winter for years and I've always found the coffee to be rather bitter and burnt, even at specialty coffee shops. I've tried it at various places in the city, from Vips to small cafes, but it's always had a similar taste. I'm starting to think that's just how Mexicans like their coffee, but I've also had some amazing coffee in Australia, so I'm curious to know if it's just me or if there's something I'm missing.

I'm visiting Mexico City for a few days and I'm excited to try the famous taquerias around the city. However, after researching, it seems that most of the menu items contain pork, which I cannot eat due to religious and dietary restrictions. Can someone recommend how I would navigate this situation if I only wanted to order beef, chicken, or vegan tacos?
