20 Best Restaurants in Seattle, From Takeout to Tasting Menus | Condé Nast Traveler
"Nobody accidentally stumbles on this spot, so anyone sitting down to an albacore tostada knows their pollo from their pescado and is focused hard the magic chef Janet Becerra makes with masa. The noise level reflects the bistro setting, so it stays pretty quiet, save for spontaneous exclamations of excellence. Becerra's skills in the kitchen bring together the home cooking of her heritage with the professional training of the fine-dining kitchen; she nixtamalizes heirloom corn in-house, pairing it with presentations and proteins that match the flavors. She draws inspiration from the top kitchens in Mexico City and the ingredients, particularly seafood, of the Pacific Northwest. Layers of flavors, precisely chosen herbs, and surprising touches like serrano-spiked Caesar salad lift the cooking here to the highest level." - Naomi Tomky, Stefan Milne, Jessica Voelker
