A bit of a nice find in a city with some marginal Mexican food. This is a Jose Andres restaurant. I didn’t know that in advance of dining here but after the first taste of my ice tea I knew this place was special.
We sat outside on 7th street. The weather was perfect and it wasn’t very crowded. The host said their menu was “coming” back. We hear that a lot for restaurants. This is the normal dining post Covid right now.
The menu was full of wonderful items though. We shared the following:
Cheviche con Citros – stripped bass, pineapple, a little spice – life changing experience. Onions, celantro, citrus, and pineapple pair perfectly together. Not too much acid. Balanced.
Roasted Brussel Sprouts – Perfect – Rebecca cleaned her plate.
Fish taco – lightly breaded, fresh crema – any good mexican restaurant does a nice fish taco. Many places over do it. This was an excellent light fish taco. They get it here.
Mushroom taco – heat, firm mushrooms, home made bbq
Frijoles – refried beans stuffed with cheese and fresh sour cream – OMG. Not heavy as well. Very light. Beans were a little dry but the cream balanced that.
