This cool Roma Norte spot has a front courtyard laid with stone blocks, set with tables, and enhanced by old growth trees. The interior dining area is set a few steps above and is fronted by ivy-wrapped columns and a wrap-around terrace for additional al fresco dining. Inside, the space features wood plank flooring, stucco walls, a bar, and open kitchen in back.
The menu offers an abundant array of choices, and the creative items are sparked by an intriguing combination of ingredients. Empanadas norteños is a golden-crisped half-moon stuffed with chicharrón prensado and smoked fish. The zesty octopus stew is topped with bits of crunchy menudo and accompanied by freshly made tortillas.
