Is there a cooler restaurant in Puerto Escondido? Channeling the sleekness of a Japanese zen garden, the outdoor space is picture-perfect and built out with handsome wood beams, a backlit bar, and an old tree that stretches across the dining room.

The corn tostada with confit pork jowl, creamy refried beans, guacamole and grasshoppers is a worthy order, as is the catch of the day topped with chimichurri, spinach and grapefruit segments. Whether you order a la carte or trust the kitchen with the signature tasting menu, expect attractive presentations and bold flavors. The space is equally inviting with its handsome wood tab
