Padrecito

Padrecito is the spot for elevated Mexican dishes made with local ingredients from small purveyors and farms. The food is also seasonal, which means just as you fall in love with something, you’ll likely have to wait a while before it comes back, but all the better to try new things, like duck chilaquiles, grilled arctic char tacos, and the very addictive guacamole con queso fresco (okay so maybe that’s not a new thing, but it is a thing you should order). Pardrecito also has a lineup of truly creative cocktails (in “normal” times, it’s worth going to the bar side of the space just for drinks). Look carefully at the drawings on the menu to see just how much of each ingredient every cocktail contains.
