Taco María

This simply appointed but highly desirable gem boasts one of the country’s most refined expressions of Mexican cuisine from the intensely creative Chef Carlos Salgado. This kitchen shines at dinner with a prix-fixe menu inspired by his heritage and bolstered by top-notch produce and techniques honed during his fine-dining days. Centered around a sleek open kitchen and counter, the cooking displays reverence towards traditional ingredients and plates are not overly complicated. This is food that's easy to eat and crave, like a smoked sturgeon taco with marinated cucumbers and chile ancho. The gallina pintada do-it-yourself tacos (with gooseberry, smoked habanero and fava greens from the woodfire grill) are some of the best you will eat.
