Cuisine, atmosphere and best dishes
Cuisine: Modern Mexican. Atmosphere: stylish and energetic, with a strong bar scene. Best menu items: the creative tacos, tableside or fresh guacamole, shareable starters, and a margarita flight or a sipping tequila from the extensive list. The drinks programme is a real strength, so it doubles as a good happy-hour stop.
Price, who it suits and family rating
Price: $$ (mid-range). Family rating: 3/5 — families can dine, but the trendy, bar-forward vibe makes it best for groups, couples and friends out for a fun, lively meal. It is a strong choice when you want modern Mexican with a great tequila selection rather than a quiet family dinner.

Our recommendation
