The menu, created by Foshee and Rivera, will, of course, consist of a wide variety of gourmet tacos made with house-made tortillas, as well as shareable plate and main courses. The non-GMO heirloom corn for the tortillas will come from Mexico and will be ground daily in-house using a $10,000-plus masa grinder, custom made for the restaurant. Highlights from the expansive taco menu ($5-6) include Baja fried fish, lamb barbacoa, potato, grilled avocado and more. Other menu standouts include birria steamed clams, wood-roasted pork shoulder and smoked and roasted yellowtail collars.
As for the bar menu, in addition to an ample selection of tequila and mezcal, there will also be Baja-sourced wines, a lengthy cocktail list and craft beers from San Diego and Mexico, including a beer brewed just for the restaurant - Galaxy Corn Lager made by Benchmark Brewing.
