Mexican gets haute at this slinky, charcoal-hued restaurant, with innovative takes on south-of-the-border flavors from co-chefs Enrique Olvera and Daniela Soto-Innes. Subvert culinary stereotypes with the likes of delicate, invigorating scallops with avocado and jicama, a green mole with bok choy and purslane, herb guacamole or Cosme’s cult-status duck carnitas. Book ahead or try your luck at the walk-in bar.
