How the estimate works

One meal per person is estimated from the restaurant's own menu: the median starter plus the median main course; one main course when the menu has no starter section; three tacos at a taquería; one breakfast plate at a breakfast place; or the cheapest set menu at a tasting-menu restaurant. Drinks, desserts, sides and tip (10–15% is customary in Mexico) are not included. Restaurants without a sectioned, priced official menu are left out rather than guessed. Dollar and euro equivalents use the European Central Bank reference rate of 2026-10-19 and are rounded. Full methodology →
