From the local food press

Editor’s picks from published local guides
  • Chef-owner Juan Contreras cooks the family recipes of his native Michoacan at this Lakeview restaurant, including a roast chicken draped in a deep, layered mole poblano. The kitchen makes its own tortillas and salsas, and the bar mixes margaritas from fresh-squeezed juice. A neighborhood Mexican spot rooted in one family's regional cooking rather than the standard combo plate.
