We are a slightly upscale Mexican
eatery that splashes into a
progressive Northwest Side
neighborhood, aiming to offer
diners something beyond the usual
Mexican fare.


The Scene
We are a casual restaurant that offers
a colorful respite of bright yellow and
brick walls. Rustic wooden tables and
chairs line the long, narrow space,
where photos of Puerto Escondido a
Mexican surfing town add to the
escapist feel, a bright patio adds on
the summer time to make you feel
you are on some of those pleasant
beaches in Mexico. Instrumental
Latino music plays lightly overhead.


The Food
Brightly flavored sauces and seasonal
vegetables dress up a seafood-centered
menu. Fresh guacamole comes served
with slices of jicama that enhance the
starter. Spicy ceviches offer a perfect
blend of lime juice, fresh seafood,
cilantro and tomatoes. Main course
specialties include mahi mahi with a
habanero-infused tomato sauce,
served alongside garlic mashed
potatoes, or the shrimp al mojo de
ajo--an avocado and olive oil salsa
with heavy garlic overtones. Meat
eaters will be sated with a surfeit of
mole sauces: roasted lamb chops with
complex mole negro and roasted pork
chops with red, fruity mole.
Dine Alfresco in our back patio!
