Mexta
Mexican
A cheesecake baked to order from three cheeses, landing somewhere between dessert and a philosophical argument, is a fitting way to close a meal at this upscale Mexican restaurant in East Austin. The kitchen leans into complex sauces and careful technique, with moles and ceviches that clearly have something to prove. Cocktails are inventive enough to hold their own. The Michelin Guide has it listed among its selected restaurants.
