Worthy Picks
#1
Terraza 7
7.9
A live-music-first hangout with rooftop energy where the night is built around performances, cocktails, and snackable plates between sets. It works best when you treat it like a paced evening: arrive early, grab a rooftop table when available, and order a few specific dishes rather than trying to make it a full dinner destination.
Must-Try Dishes:
Terraza Steak, Chilaquiles Verdes, Shiitake Taco
What Makes it Special: A rooftop-leaning live-music venue where the show is the main event.
#2
Sabor Latino
7.6
Vibes:
Group Dining Gatherings
Birthday & Celebration Central
Late Night Legends
Live Music Showtime
A festive Ecuadorian-leaning room where the best “steakhouse” move is ordering churrasco-style plates and keeping expectations focused on grilled-meat satisfaction, not polish. It’s strongest when you treat it like a straightforward grill-and-sides stop rather than a full-service steak temple.
Must-Try Dishes:
Churrasco (grilled beefsteak plate), Grilled skirt steak (entraña a la parrilla), Baked beef ribs (costillas de res al horno)
What Makes it Special: Late-running Latin venue where churrasco plates are the safest bet.
