ATX Cocina

Shoppers needing a respite from Second Street can settle in at ATX Cocina, a modern Mexican restaurant where chef Kevin Taylor puts a gourmet spin on quesadillas and sopes. Homemade tortillas are stuffed with oxtail and marinated cabbage, or you can dip into elevated queso fundido at the crudo bar or on the breezy patio. The house Paloma is made with grapefruit four ways—as a foam, a juice, a simple syrup and infused in reposado tequila.
