In Short
Red tables and sunny yellow walls brighten this casual neighborhood restaurant. An open kitchen buzzes with chatter; tables with locals munching chips and sipping potent margaritas. Expect Mexican staples (tacos, burritos, chimichangas) with fillings ranging from chicken and steak to beef brains and tongue. Chunky guacamole served with thick, crispy chips is a great start; seviche brims with zesty, lime-marinated shrimp. Other favorites: carne asada, whole red snapper and cheese-stuffed shrimp.
