Hiya

Hiya sits at Sinaloa 156 in Roma Norte, just past the better known sushi spot Yoru, with no real signage to flag it. The Infatuation's review pins the find, walk toward the crowd that looks like off duty creative directors.

The room rides Mexico City's Japanese bar wave but builds on two things that rarely share a space, natural wine and hi fi audio. Speakers anchor the room, the lights stay low and the volume sits at conversation level rather than club level.

The list runs natural wines, a solid cocktail lineup and sake by the carafe or bottle, with The Infatuation calling the $11 Kikumasamune carafe a steal built for sharing. The kitchen sends out robata, temaki and small plates.

Order the vongole ramen, a salty clam broth over homemade noodles that The Infatuation rates next level. Antojito named Hiya its Gem of the Month for April 2026 and notes weeknight walk ins still work.

Go Tuesday through Thursday for a counter seat and the full hi fi effect. For more pours, see our Mexico City wine bars guide, the best bars in Mexico City, and the near me bar finder.

Tuesday through Thursday evenings are the walk in window, when counter seats sit open and the staff have time to talk through the wine list.

Friday and Saturday fill by 8pm with the Roma Norte dinner crowd, so arrive early or book through OpenTable. The late kitchen keeps plates moving until close.
