Combining a passion for Mexico’s rich heritage, an electric jolt of imagination and masterful technique, Chef Val M. Cantú has created a truly singular gastronomic destination. The cavernous space is more festive than hallowed, thanks to a lively playlist and colorful artwork. The menu draws upon a dizzying variety of Mexican flavors, utilizing the finest local products and subtle international influences to transform familiar dishes into deliciously unique culinary creations. The humble tortilla displays particular mastery here, as in a pillowy sourdough tortilla with an ethereally crisp mezcal-battered black cod, checkered with huitlacoche and yellow corn cremas, or heirloom white corn tortillas accented with black sesame and poppy seeds, to match smoked quail enrobed in a complex house mole.
