"Eating here is like traveling back in culinary time to 1950s Mexico. The menu focuses on fancy, somewhat staid dishes like hearts of palm salad, beef broth soup (the signature), braised tongue, salt-baked fish, and surf-and-turf ceviche with shrimp and raw beef. The drink options span pours of tequila, brandy, and digestivos; simple mixers of vodka and soda, rum and Coke, domestic beer. It's been open since 1904, and it's popular with a conservative crowd of multi-generational families, men on business lunches, and middle-aged couples." - Naomi Tomky, Scarlett Lindeman
