Description

Some chefs tout their use of local products, but Chefs Adolfo Galnares and María Ortega are truly committed at their restaurant, Allium, where nearly 100% of their ingredients are Mexican. A rooftop garden provides hyperlocal produce, while Nayarit seafood is the star of the show. Sit indoors or out and enjoy dishes like the tiradito de pina, a fish of the day layered with charred pineapple and finely diced chiles in a soy marinade. Main dishes like crisp-skinned, pan-seared pescado with a tomatillo pistachio mole verde never disappoint. Neither does their dulce de leche panna cotta with guava
