"The former head chef from Fishtown's LMNO moved into his own stunning space down the street, and he brought his love for mole with him. The sleek and buzzy Mexican restaurant has seating for nearly every occasion—there’s bar seating for a sotol cocktail, an airy main dining room packed with groups of friends, and there’s even an area with retractable walls, perfect for pretending you’re near the Cabo coastline when the night breeze hits you. The menu, for now, can be hit-or-meh, but the smoky, 72-hour brined chicken and citrusy rock shrimp tostadas topped with tangy chamoy sauce are early standouts. Toss in the best churros in the city, and you have a truly transportive experience (even when the el train rumbles through your Mexican fantasy)." - Candis R. McLean
