Playful, heavy-topped Mexican-influenced pizzas with a rock-metal vibe; great for sharing, creative and bold, but expect loud music, occasional slow service, and prices on the high side.
Pizza del Perro Negro delivers solid food quality with creative Mexican-fusion pizzas and friendly, attentive service, but inconsistent topping balance and branch-to-branch variation prevent a higher grade. Slow service times and tight seating further limit the experience, though the lively Coyoacán location and shareable portions appeal to casual diners seeking bold flavors over traditional pizza.
The room feels loud and lively, a small den of rock posters and chunky pies where servers like Chino and Cherry get shout-outs. One diner put it simply: "We could not finish our loaded pizza," a fair hint at the indulgent tone. Expect friendly table service, some waits for the oven, and the occasional queue due to few tables. The cooking leans creative and Mexican-influenced rather than Italian traditional. Think al pastor on the Gringa Cabrón, cochinita pibil on the Caníbal, or buffalo cauliflower for a spicy veg twist. Add the cheese crust for crunch and richness. Portions are hefty and meant for sharing; great when you want bold flavor mashups, less ideal if you crave Neapolitan minimalism. For families, it is kid-friendly by menu: pepperoni or plain cheese pies, the Rufián personal size, wedges, and mac all appeal to younger palates. The music can be loud and the space tight, but food options for kids are real; just plan for shareable portions and possible waits.
