Mexican
An old-school institution in Claveria that started, as the story goes, when a customer spotted the staff eating something too good to keep off a menu. Now the founder's son runs the kitchen, turning out a tasting menu of classic Mexican cooking in a room that feels like a neighborhood restaurant that just happens to have been packed for generations. Warm, unhurried, and a long way from the tourist trail.
