Description:
- Two towering palm trees wrapped in twinkling white lights beckon diners into this signless eatery. Inside, the cabana-chic decor is at once striking and festive. Black-and-white photography and beautiful glass vases filled with long-stemmed flowers adorn the baby blue walls, while starburst-shaped amber chandeliers hang from the ceiling. Hints of Mexican influence include cacti perched around the kitchen's adobe walls, rough-hewn, dark wooden tables, and a weathered tin bar overflowing with well-heeled neighborhood locals. Eschewing the notion that Mexican cuisine isn't worthy of gourmet preparation, the kitchen turns out elegant renditions of traditional dishes.

Long week? You can't go wrong with the El Padrino margarita. Insider tip: ask for the special vegetarian menu if you're an herbivore!
