We're planning a trip around Halloween to be there for day of the dead and getting started on planning now. So far all we've really booked is the hotel and the taco omakase at Pujol. Has anyone been before? Any suggestions?

Definitely do both of Shaun's suggestions. Something else that I would highly recommend is to see the Ballet Folklorico. The theater, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, is stunning, and the mariachi music is as good as it gets.

Mexico City is awesome. Went a few years ago over Easter. Wanting to go back next year.

Floating Gardens, museum and pyramids were all cool. For the Pyramids we hired the hotel valet guy for the day and he drove us out and gave us a tour. We ended up eating dinner with him haha. I think we paid $60 USD.

Random, but one night they had Lucha Libra wrestling event at Arena Mexico. I convinced my wife to go...it was honestly one of the funniest and fun nights I've ever had.

I ended up changing my flights to stay an extra day.

If you can get into any sort of event at Estadio Azteca, it's cool and worth seeing. Id go back for pastor tacos and just try them anywhere i found them.. Also, enjoyed these restaurants:

El Tizoncito
Lalo!
El Moro

And I'd also agree with the first two suggestions. Teotihuacan was a great sight. Id suggest getting there early before it gets too crowded if you can make it.
