Monte Alban
This family-owned restaurant specializes in the subtle cooking of one of Mexico's most respected culinary regions: Oaxaca. The flavors here are intense without being fiery, as families dine under Mexican-themed murals and antique masks. Try this version of chiles rellenos: bright green chili peppers stuffed with chicken, raisins, and nuts. Don't miss any of the complex moles ladled over chicken, pork, salmon, or extra-tender stewed goat. For dessert, there's fried sweet plantains topped with crème fraîche.
