01What to order

• Prime T-boneThe cut named in the launch coverage. The articles give no weight or price.

02The beef

The launch coverage speaks of imported prime cuts and names no country, breed, feeding system, aging time or grade. Steakpedia therefore lists none. What the sources do give is a cut list: T-bone, rib eye, short rib and rack of lamb, with grilled bone marrow to start. There is also a sister Carnivore at Live Aqua in Cancún, a separate restaurant with its own menu.

03The fire

The house presents itself as a tribute to fire, and Robb Report quotes the flavors as coming directly from the parrilla to the table. No article names the fuel, the type of grill or whether the cuts finish in an oven; the kitchen is visible from the dining room, according to Excélsior.

04The story

Carnivore Prime Steakhouse opened in September 2024. Robb Report wrote on Sept. 11 that it had just opened its doors, and SDP Noticias reported it on Sept. 9. It is part of invitta, which Grupo Posadas describes as a platform of seven restaurants and bars, led in the kitchen by Gerardo Rivera, lead chef of Live Aqua and Fiesta Americana. Enrique Calderón, Posadas' vice president of operations, spoke at the opening. The Cancún Carnivore at Live Aqua is a different restaurant. Excélsior still listed the Mexico City house in August 2025.
