The Scene
Mexican folk art contributes to the splash of colors that dress the multicolored walls, while the front windows draw in Brady Street's local color. Handmade margaritas and sangria flow from the tiled bar with a wonderful mix of salsa, mariachi and other Mexican music adding to the lively atmosphere.
The Food
Pass on the typical Mexican fare and opt for the regional specialties that concentrate on the foods of Oaxaca, Veracruz and Mexico City. Start with the queso fresco fondue, a molten dish of slightly salty cheese served with fresh tortillas and a wonderful spicy pumpkinseed-based salsa. Machamantel, an exceptionally fragrant fruit mole, coats a perfectly sauteed chicken breast. Friday evenings cater to seafood lovers with a long list of rotating specials featuring items like oysters in tequila and whole snapper.
