"Another Gejdenson place is La Puerta Verde. The colorful Mexican restaurant’s menu includes favorites like chile relleno and flautas, as well as nods to Mexican coastal cuisine like grilled whole fish in banana leaves and guajillo marinade. And who doesn't love $2 happy hour tacos? —Adele Chapin" - Adele Chapin, Missy Frederick
