A Japanese and pan-Asian restaurant in Cuernavaca's La Pradera district known locally for its ramen and sushi menu.
Midori Chan is a casual Japanese and pan-Asian restaurant in Cuernavaca's La Pradera district, built around a menu that spans ramen, sushi rolls and Korean-influenced dishes like kimchi mandu. The ramen and sushi are the most requested items, with the kitchen drawing on a mix of Japanese and broader Asian technique rather than a single national cuisine. The dining room is casual and modern, with simple decor and a steady, moderate noise level that stays comfortable for conversation; there is no formal dress code. The drinks list includes beer, sake and a small selection of cocktails rather than an extensive wine program. Reservations are recommended for dinner, particularly on weekends, when the restaurant's regional reputation for ramen and sushi draws diners from across Cuernavaca.
