Half of this long narrow room is a seedy bar, but authentic Mexican food rises above the decor.

In Short
The Cafe's plates draw on the cuisine of Oaxaca and Veracruz, and the range of ingredients and techniques on the menu is impressive--a mole sauce is as likely a verde (pumpkin seeds and tomatillos) as a poblano (with chocolate). The Veracruz influence shows strongest in the fish dishes, which combine the ''catch of the day'' with a glorious range of sauces. Laid-back, colorful and funky, the room is decorated with the standard Mexican-restaurant mural and weavings.
