In Short
White tablecloths with carved wood chairs, brick inserts on white walls and pops of earthy colors set a civilized but welcoming tone at this West Town restaurant whose name fittingly means ''Mexico'' in French. Here, husband-and-wife team Carlos Gaytan and Iliamar Isaac turn out French-inflected Latin cuisine from a glassed-in kitchen. Pleasing dishes include a trio of sopes: escargot and chimichirri butter; shrimp Provençal with avocado mousse; and sweet plantains, young coconut and xico mole. In the evening, the menu expands to include grilled filet mignon with goat cheese, Yukon Gold potato puree, roasted ratatouille and red wine sauce.
