ZOCALO

 Opened in summer 2006 by cousins Edgar and Marcos Castaneda (Edgar is son of the Lalo's founder), Zocalo serves innovative Mexican fare in small, sharable portions...in a gigantic restaurant.

Chef Saul Roman applies years of jalapeno-kissed wisdom; he's fanned the stove's flames at spots like Salpicon, Picante Grill and Adobo Grill. Standout menu items include the gallina al mango (grilled Cornish hen in mango glaze), huachinango a la talla (butterflied red snapper) and flaming cheese served tableside.

A towering, dark wood bar houses a gazillion kinds of tequila (60, to be exact) and offers margaritas, mojitos and specialty drinks like the aguas frescas, a punchy fruit and rum concoction. Wood and subdued colors flood the soaring space, while a rotating display of work from local artists adds some colorful pop.
