- Cuisines: Seafood, Mexican
NileGuide Expert tip:
Know before you go: Café Alvarez can get extremely busy during peak times but is well worth the wait (and the delicious happy hour-margaritas make the wait pretty darn tolerable).
Description:
- Put on the sombrero and head into Casa Alvarez for a taste of Old World Mexico. Owners Ernesto Alverez and Betty Cormane create traditional favorites in an upscale (but bona fide) south-of-the-border atmosphere. If you feel like a change from the usual Mexican fare, order the house specialty, Mojara Frita. The dish is a whole fried freshwater tilapia with a side of beans. Numerous shrimp selections, vegetarian dishes and old spins on standard Mexican items complete the menu. The bar offers over 30 different types of tequila.
