Chef/Owner Paul LoDuca (Vinci, Trattoria Parma) has created this upscale Mexican restaurant located in the Piper's Alley building. The Nuevo Latino eatery is a popular destination for locals who come for the killer margaritas and signature guacamole appetizer, prepared tableside to guests' tastes with a mortar and pestle. From snapper Veracruzana to tres leches cake, the fare pleases. Also find huevos Mexicanos specialties during the weekend brunch. Beware overbooking, long delays and stressed servers.
