The mouthwatering tostadas offered here at Sabina are identical to those served at the cart and include the version spread with bacalao ceviche and heaped with tender, chopped octopus.

COMAL Restaurante
Mexican

This all-day restaurant is located in the heart of trendy Plaza Santo Tomás. Under the soaring warehouse ceilings, high-top bar seating wraps around a small open kitchen where chefs regularly press and griddle tortillas on a small comal. From casual lunches to heartier dinners, regional inspiration is far-ranging, though Oaxaca is a frequent focus (think assorted moles, crispy tlayudas and warm tetelas). Chocolate flan with salted toffee caramel makes for a lovingly sweet, light finale. Service is notably friendly and accommodating.
