About Faunna Rooftop

Faunna Rooftop is a stylish rooftop bar-restaurant perched atop a 16-story office building at Av. Juárez 104 in historic Colonia Centro . It opened in late January 2025 and quickly became known as a “charming, elegant” venue for dining and nightlife . The concept emphasizes nature in the city – official descriptions call it “a refuge where nature integrates into urban life” with lush vegetation and warm, harmonious design . In fact, reviews praise its neutral-toned walls, granite floors and abundant greenery that make the rooftop feel like an urban oasis . Guests enjoy sweeping views of the skyline – one reviewer even noted you can spot landmarks like Palacio de Bellas Artes and Torre Latinoamericana from the terrace . Online ratings are strong (about 4 out of 5 stars) and OpenTable explicitly labels Faunna as upscale “Internacional” cuisine (over MXN 500 per person) . In short, Faunna Rooftop matters as a high-end new addition to Mexico City’s Centro Historic nightlife – combining fine dining, mixology and DJ-driven parties under a retractable rooftop with panoramic views .

Events and Programming

Faunna hosts a steady lineup of live performances, mostly DJ sets and electronic music parties. On weekend evenings you’ll find international and local DJs spinning house, Afro-house and dance music under the stars. For example, Resident Advisor listings show weekly “Faunna This Week” programming with acts like Mamba, Aarón Sevilla and Juany Bravo on Thur/Fri/Sat nights . Shazam’s event listing confirms popular names such as Aarón Sevilla and Juany Bravo appearing in late-2025 schedules . Dance and house are the dominant genres – Shazam even notes “Dance” and “House” as the most popular sounds at Faunna . Upcoming event notices (e.g. via Passline) include Afrobeats or Progressive House parties – for instance, a “Progresive House Night” on 12 Dec 2025 featuring Colombian DJ Gux Jimenez . Typically these events are 18+ (photo ID required) , and tickets must be bought through promoters (no official in-house box office). Daytime and early-evening hours are more devoted to dining – OpenTable even notes Faunna is “ideal for brunch” – but once night falls the place transforms into a high-energy club space with sensory lighting and dancing.

Tickets and Booking

Dinner Reservations: Book a table well in advance. Faunna takes reservations via OpenTable and by phone. Its OpenTable profile explicitly says you can reserve by simply selecting date, time and party size . Dinner and brunch require no tickets – just arrive with your reservation and pay on-site.
Event Tickets: Special DJ parties and shows are ticketed. No physical box office is generally available, so you must purchase tickets from official outlets (such as ARECA’s Starticket.mx, Resident Advisor, or Ticketmaster links promoted by the club). After-sales (door tickets) are not guaranteed, so it’s safest to buy online once events are announced. Popular shows often sell out early, so set alerts on ticketing sites.
Pricing: Cover charges vary by event. Small local DJ nights might have low entry fees or a drink minimum, while big-name acts could cost several hundred pesos. The restaurant prices are upscale (noted as “Más de MXN500” per person ), so expect drinks and food to be on the higher side.
At the Door: On non-ticketed days (regular dining hours) there is no cover. For ticketed events, remaining tickets may or may not be sold at the door if space permits. Generally, arriving early improves your chances of entry and landing a good spot.

Seating and Layout

Faunna Rooftop is essentially one large open-air lounge on the building’s top floor. There are no fixed row seats – instead you’ll find a mix of high-top tables, lounge couches and bar seating arranged around the dance floor and DJ booth. The edge of the terrace is lined with small tables facing the railing for dining guests or cocktail drinkers, while the center floor serves as the standing/dancing area when DJs play. Because the roof is mostly open (with a retractable glass cover), visibility is excellent; any seat along the perimeter offers sweeping city views. In fact, Faunna’s design deliberately orients guests toward the skyline – “you can see the moon and a few stars” through the roof, and the Palacio de Bellas Artes and the Latin Tower are visible in the distance . There are also partial covered areas near the bar where the roof can stay closed if needed for weather. Acoustically, the sound system is distributed so that music fills the terrace evenly; the DJ booth is centrally located, but even tables farther out enjoy a solid audio balance. In general, no seating is truly “bad” – tables on the west side get the best sunset views, and those nearest the bar or DJ offer the most lively party vibe. (On weekdays or before shows you can usually choose any table; on busy nights there’s standing room and some VIP-style lounge seating around the bar for bottle service.)

Getting There and Parking

Location: Faunna Rooftop sits at Avenida Juárez #104 in Col. Centro, Cuauhtémoc (CP 06010). It’s right in the historic center – for reference, the famous Palacio de Bellas Artes is just blocks away and even visible from the roof .
Metro: The closest metro stop is Bellas Artes (Lines 2 & 8), literally at Plaza Bellas Artes across Juárez. It’s roughly a 1–2 minute walk. Metro Juárez (Line 3) and Metro Hidalgo (Lines 2 & 3) are also within a 5–10 minute walk.
Bus & Rideshare: Several city buses and the Metrobus run along Reforma and Eje Central nearby. However, the easiest way is by cab or rideshare. Uber, DiDi or taxis can drop you off on Av. Juárez by #104. Just tell drivers “Av. Juárez 104” – the entrance is on street level. (Note that late nights, when Metro closes around midnight, Uber is especially recommended for the return trip.)
Parking: There is no dedicated lot for Faunna’s patrons. The nearest paid parking is the underground garage at Palacio de Bellas Artes (Ranver), which has ~405 spaces . This garage charges by the hour (around MXN $562/hr according to Parkopedia ), so it can get expensive quickly. Street parking in Centro is scarce and metered, so we generally advise using public transit or rideshare. On busy nights, plan to arrive earlier or park at a nearby garage (Bellas Artes or Reforma) and walk over.

Inside the Venue

Inside Faunna Rooftop you’ll find a warm, lounge-like atmosphere infused with greenery and natural textures. As you enter (by elevator or stairs at street level), you’re greeted by a full-service bar, contemporary furnishings and live plants decorating the space. Even though it’s on a high floor, the design feels cozy – neutral wall tones and granite floors pair with wood furniture. There are dining tables if you have a reservation, and a central bar stocked for cocktails. Interestingly, TripAdvisor notes that Faunna accepts credit cards (even American Express) and is “dog-friendly” in its outdoor seating area , a sign that it’s both upscale and inclusive. Menu-wise, the cuisine is Mediterranean-inspired with Mexican flair: chef Miguel Rodríguez leads an international lineup of dishes. For example, diners rave about items like the fresh arugula salads, tacos al pastor (with a black tortilla twist), wagyu burgers and the signature “Ostiones Faunna” oysters . Mixologist Mario Mena’s cocktail program draws on ancestral Mexican flavors – mezcal-based drinks and creative twists on classics (several reviews highlight Faunna’s “strong and delicious cocktails” as a highlight ). The retractable glass roof is definitely a highlight: on clear nights it opens up, allowing the DJ to spin under the stars and giving patrons a true outdoor-club feel . À la carte service runs until late night; after sunset the house lights dim, music volume rises, and Faunna’s dining tables give way to a dancing crowd. Very Polite Staff (as some reviewers note): service is attentive – one traveler even singled out servers like Ricardo for going “above and beyond” to make visits memorable . Overall, the inside atmosphere is a sophisticated party – plush seating, urban vegetation, and a scenic backdrop make it feel special.

Nearby Amenities

The Juárez/Centro neighborhood around Faunna is rich in options. For pre-show dining, you can choose from authentic local spots to upscale Mexican cuisine. For example, the historic Café de Tacuba (Mexican fare) and the long-running Izote (modern Mexican) are both within walking distance. Casual taquerias and street-food stands also line Juárez and nearby streets if you want a quick meal. If you prefer grabbing a drink beforehand, the Juárez and Centro areas are packed with bars and cafes – a couple blocks away you’ll find cocktail lounges, classic cantinas and even some craft beer pubs, so it’s easy to start the evening nearby. In terms of lodging, several hotels are just steps from Faunna. The Gran Hotel Ciudad de México (Zócalo Towers) and NH Collection City Centro are both about a 5–10 minute walk to the south; these offer easy access to historic sites. The Hilton Mexico City Reforma and Barceló México Reforma are about one block south/west on Juárez and offer rooftop views of their own. For later travel, note that the subway shuts down around midnight; after late events the safest way home is via Uber/authorized taxi (there are always vehicle stands at Bellas Artes). If you drive, remember that parking is limited – either use the nearby paid garage (Bellas Artes) or arrive early if you need a spot. Guests generally suggest arriving at least 30–60 minutes before showtime to avoid lines and get settled. If you’re coming for dinner first, plan on arriving around 6–7pm, and for a party night, earlier in the evening is best. (One tip: aim to be there at sunset – reviewers note that the dusk skyline from Faunna is especially “magical” .) For late-night journeys home, rideshare apps work well; official CDMX taxis and Uber frequently service the Bellas Artes area and usually have cars waiting. In a pinch, a local microbus (pesero) can sometimes be caught on Juárez or Reforma, but a cab is recommended after dark.

What Makes This Venue Special

Faunna Rooftop stands out for its combination of lush design, city views and cultural flair. Architecturally, it’s one of the few new rooftop terraces in Centro that feels like a true urban “oasis” – its interior is literally filled with vegetation, earthy textures and a retractable glass roof . This means you can dine or dance literally under the moon or stars, a rarity in downtown Mexico City . Culturally, Faunna explicitly embraces Mexican heritage. The menu and cocktails draw on native ingredients and traditions – mixology legend Mario Mena created drinks “inspired by Mexican ancestral flavors” for Faunna – and the venue is said to “celebrate Mexico’s essence and values” in its overall atmosphere . Fans also point to the stellar views. By choosing seats along the glass railing, you get a 180° panorama: on clear nights you see the Palacio de Bellas Artes, Torre Latinoamericana and other landmarks downtown . A reviewer even recommended “visiting at sunset for the enchanting time” – in other words, the scenery itself is a draw . The mix of live DJs and the botanical interior has earned Faunna high praise as a “holistic experience where food, drink, and atmosphere come together in harmony” . In practice, that means it succeeds as both a top-notch restaurant and a vibrant club – something few venues achieve. After all, one guest summed it up by calling Faunna “an unexpected great place” where the “beautiful scenery, good food, and superb service” make nights memorable . These qualities – setting, design and service – give Faunna Rooftop a unique character that local crowds and visiting artists both love.

What are the entry age and ID requirements?

Most nights (especially late-evening events) are 18+ only. You will need a valid photo ID (passport or driver’s license). Faunna’s event listings explicitly state a minimum age of 18 . Daytime dining may be more family-friendly, but always check if an event is alcohol-focused before bringing minors.

Several Metrobus and bus routes run along Reforma/Eje Central nearby. If possible, use Metro or a cab – street traffic and parking around Juárez can be heavy.

Faunna has no private parking lot. The closest public garage is the underground Palacio de Bellas Artes parking, which charges by the hour (Parkopedia lists it in maps with ~405 spaces and a rate ~MXN $562/hr ). Street parking in the Centro is very limited. To avoid hassle, most guests skip driving and use rideshare or the Metro.

What are the seating and sightline options?

The venue is one large open-air deck. Tables and seats run along the railing for dining, and an open space/standing area centers around the DJ. Any seat by the glass rail has a great view of the city skyline (you can even see the Bellas Artes palace in the distance ). Near the DJ and bar is where the party happens, while the edges are better for lounging and enjoying the scenery. There is no bad spot acoustically – music is heard throughout – but pick a seat to suit your mood (views out or dancing in).

What kind of food and drinks are served here?

Faunna’s menu is international with a Mediterranean/seafood focus and Mexican influences. Expect dishes like cured salmon or prawn ceviche, salads with wild arugula, creative tacos (e.g. al pastor on black tortillas), Wagyu burgers, and their signature “Ostiones Faunna” oysters . The cocktail program is a highlight – drinks use Mexican spirits (tequila/mezcal) and local flavors. Bartenders have crafted specialty cocktails “inspired by Mexico’s ancestral flavors” . Overall it’s more upscale gastropub fare than typical bar snacks.

Is Faunna Rooftop indoor or outdoor, and can it operate in bad weather?

Faunna is essentially an open-air rooftop. It does have a retractable glass roof over the center, however, so on a rainy night they can close it and still host the party under cover . Even with the roof closed, the sides are open, so be prepared for some breeze. In general the space is designed for outdoor dining and dancing – spectacuof the cityscape are a feature that require mostly open walls.

What are the venue’s policies on pets, cameras, etc.?

Pets (non-service animals) are generally not allowed indoors, but TripAdvisor notes the venue is “dog-friendly” for its outdoor seating . Photography with smartphones or small cameras is usually fine (many guests take pictures of the view), although using large video rigs or tripods is discouraged. Bags may be checked at the door for major events, so pack light. Smoking is only permitted in designated outdoor areas. Outside food or drink is prohibited – everything must be purchased on site.

What is the best time to visit Faunna Rooftop?

If you’re coming for the atmosphere and views, aim to arrive around sunset or shortly after. Reviewers specifically recommend timing your visit so that you can watch the sun go down – the twilight colors over the city are said to be “magical” from Faunna . On party nights, arriving 30–60 minutes before the advertised start helps avoid lines and secure your place. For dinner or brunch, a 6–8pm reservation is common. Remember that Metro stops running around midnight, so if you stay late plan a taxi/Uber ride home instead.

Is Faunna wheelchair accessible?

Faunna is on the 16th floor of a modern building, so there is elevator access up to the venue. The indoor dining/bar area is on one level and restrooms are on-site. While we couldn’t find an official ADA statement, the presence of an elevator and a spacious layout suggests it is largely accessible. If you require assistance, it’s wise to call ahead and confirm facilities (ramps, elevator working, etc.).
