"Excellent Mexican and Latin American food can be yours at cheery bistro Mi Corazón. Located in midtown, the restaurant’s bright pink bar hung with dozens of “corazón” — Spanish for heart — sculptures welcomes visitors as they walk in. Specializing in organic produce during both brunch and dinner service, try dishes like squash carpaccio broiled with goat cheese, Piedmontese sirloin steak asada, or caldo de mariscos, sustainably sourced seafood in a guajillo pepper broth. Dinner’s showstopper is the pendejata plate, a poblano pepper stuffed with panela cheese and served with a tamale, beans, and melange of vegetables." - Jennifer Burns Bright
