Oyamel Cocina Mexicana - 401 7th St NW
The combo of traditional Mexican dishes and modern urban fare make this spot, featuring a faux butterfly theme, a must-try. From the
grilled hanger steak served with chiles and fingerling tomatoes to the braised duck leg with Oaxacan mole and ancho chiles, Oyamel keeps you salivating for more after every course. For the brave, there's even sautéed grasshopper tacos! No matter what your food desires, be sure to try the impressive selection of tequila; does one ever really regret that?
