Many thanks to @OCSteve for the recs and @Hungrydrunk for the tip on the supplemental thing. Quick run down follows. I’m not terribly eloquent when describing food so the poor photos I took will do much of the talking.
Amuse-bouche: Hot Cheetos and Ranch. Fun to eat with super airy ranch dressing. It’s good but nothing special. Literally just something to keep you busy while you wait for the first course.
Course 1: Campechana. Super fresh and a great way to start. The cherry tomatoes played well with seafood and was a nice change of pace from the typical more citrus-forward raw seafood dishes that I’ve eaten.
Course 2a: Scallop. Star of the night. Super savory but the sweetness of the scallop was evident. The squid ink crumbs aren’t just eye candy but bring a lot of unique flavor to the dish. I would go out of my way to come here and order this a la carte if it were possible.
Course 2b: Smoked Marlin Taco. Super smokey and I loved that. Despite my efforts to use the cacahuate salsa and the slightly sweetened-briny cucumber to make things interesting, the dish became very one-note after a couple bites. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great. But if I returned, I’d just spring for the scallop, no second thoughts.
Course 3: Zarandeado. Super crispy skin and very delicate and perfectly cooked fish. The rapini was unlike any I have ever had before and very delicious. Some purple potatoes added some nice substance to the dish. The crema (I think that’s what it was) was nice and added some acidity.
Course 4: Mole. You remember those steak fajitas you got at El Torito when you were dragged there against your will, kicking and screaming? This is nothing like that save the fact that you assemble your own tacos. This was a fun dish to eat. You can appreciate the beautiful, fresh tortillas (3 are given) with the fresh guacamole and the expertly-cooked steak. The mole, however, is the star: warm and comforting, with a guiding rhythm of cinnamon and toasted peanuts while notes of coffee and chocolate are evident in the background. Though the steak was great, I honestly just loved ripping a bit of tortilla, wrapping up some guacamole in it, and dragging the parcel through the mole. The charred onions were nice but I wish there were more.
Mignardise: Atole. Wow this was a great end. I didn’t expect much but great coffee, caramel, and creamy flavor. Could have hooked up an IV of this stuff.
Everything was great but to be honest, I am unsure I will return given the price tag. Do not get me wrong, everything was exquisite and the quality is undoubtedly there but with the exception of the scallop, nothing would have me running back at this price.
I will have to try their tacos. FYI for everyone and @OCSteve, they do tacos for dinner on Tuesdays and lunch on Saturday, so if a weekday lunch isn’t possible, there are a couple options.
