Weekend Breakfast Buffet from $365, with Ángel Views

Weekend breakfast buffet on the 12th floor, Saturdays and Sundays 6:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The continental buffet is about $365 per person; the full buffet runs around $700 and adds a made-to-order main like Croque Madame or enmoladas.

Balta is the restaurant on the top floor of the Sofitel on Paseo de la Reforma, with floor-to-ceiling windows looking straight at the Ángel de la Independencia. The cooking is French-Mediterranean with a Mexican hand, and the room runs smart-casual.

The buffet stations lean into that mix: a French boulangerie with croissants and pain au chocolat, artisanal cheeses and charcuterie, cold bars and fresh juices, and a live station with quesadillas and stewed Mexican meats. Ask for a window table when you book.
