Cabra

The Hoxton’s new rooftop restaurant comes courtesy of Stephanie Izard, whose Girl & the Goat outpost in the Arts District easily snagged a spot on our annual best new restaurant list last year. In similar Chicago-to-L.A. fashion, Downtown’s Cabra is the second location of the Top Chef winner’s Peruvian-inspired small plates concept, with Izard’s usual sharp, playful takes on dishes like striped bass ceviche and lomo saltado. From appetizers to dessert, there’s something memorable and delicious for everyone to love at Cabra. For us, the quinoa and tuna salad’s cornucopia of bright flavors and caramel-covered picarones—sweet potato doughnuts topped with puffed rice—stood out above all else. Together with a gorgeous poolside bar, stunning interior design and excellent cocktails, this breezy destination-worthy eatery is an obvious choice for your next big night out.
