Southwestern /
Mexican

(From January 2011) Summer marked the fifth anniversary of this small west-side jewel, where modern Mexican accents add warmth to the sleek interior and chef-owner Lanny Lancarte (grandson of the Joe T. Garcia’s founders) contributes his creativity and passion to the always-interesting menu. Tacos with beef and grilled pineapple were sided by ancho rice and a squash-onion medley for a pretty and satisfying en-trée, while a three-course lunch special featured a salad with grapes, blue cheese, and candied pecans; a delicious pan-roasted halibut atop Dijon spaetzle; and warm banana nut bread with coconut–cream cheese ice cream. Bar.

Mexican

  

(From January 2012)

This onetime convenience store has a quick, open kitchen and speedy waiters. Consider pairing the outstanding poblano-queso soup with a Cuban press sandwich (toasted with sliced ham, roasted pork loin, provolone, and pickles) or create your own taco plate, with choices like red snapper and pork carnitas and sides of rice, vegetables, black beans, pintos, and salad. BYOB.
