The Scene
This wildly popular cantina calls to mind a tropical open-air market in some faraway land. Splashes of primary colors and rough-hewn planking combine with a ceiling full of upside-down wicker baskets and breezes from overhead fans to create the south-of-the-border atmosphere. Meals arrive on wooden boards or in the pocked volcanic rock of a molcajete. Servers are attentive, but harried.
The Food
In spite of some concessions to American tastes, the kitchen generally turns out authentic Mexican dishes. Avoid the Tex-Mex favorites and go for the velvety mole poured atop a tender chicken breast, or shrimp tacos served with piquant avocado sauce. Poblano soup is fiery and creamy, while black bean cakes are crisp and addictive. Corn tortillas are fresh and chewy, bearing little resemblance to the mealy versions found in supermarkets. Desserts are less noteworthy--better to get your sugar rush from one of the sweet, potent margaritas.
