Mar y Sol Cocina Latina opened simply weeks in the past within the Knox-Henderson district of Dallas. The stylish house is superbly designed with clear strains, a serene beige and brown coloration scheme, and pure textures throughout. The beautiful pottery plates and cups distinction completely with the sunshine and ethereal setting.
Even the doorway is thrilling. You are feeling a bit such as you’re strolling right into a Cocina Latina theme park! Mar y Sol is the newest idea by the identical visionary behind one in all my all-time favourite eating places, Toulouse.
Mar y Sol presents their dishes and with such care, it’s virtually dinner theater! Ceviche is served by way of smoking dry ice dramatically spilling onto the desk and one cocktail was casually set on fireplace. What’s to not love? Listed here are all the meals particulars.
I forgot my mini ring mild and Mar y Sol’s lighting was fairly dim so please excuse the images.
Yellowtail Ceviche
I really like the quantity of uncooked gadgets on the menu. You understand how a lot your woman loves a chilly bar! We ordered the yellowtail ceviche with shaved shallot and crispy leeks and it was each bit nearly as good because it appears, so recent and flavorful.
King Crab Causas
How beautiful is that this dish!? King Crab Causas consists of marinated king crab, chili potato, Kalamata olives, tomatoes, microgreens, and a scrumptious pink sauce that pulls all of it collectively. It’s good and cooling, a welcome chunk after the complimentary desk salsa.
Drinks
The Hibiscus Dragon Cocktail was refreshing however it wasn’t almost as vibrantly pink because it appeared in images. I a lot most well-liked the Basito de Verano, a frozen pineapple tequila cocktail that immediately transported me to an island mind-set.
The mango margarita, La Diabla, is served in a hoop of fireplace, a lot to our delight, and was completed with a tajin rim.
Queso Fundido
The queso fundido arrived scorching sizzling, creating one big crunchy cheese crust. Our pleasant server confirmed us find out how to scrape the cheese and eat it within the housemade blue corn tortillas. Scrumptious!
Lomo Saltado
Although we have been fairly full already, we soldiered on. (I do that for y’all!) We cut up the Lomo Saltado and thank goodness we did. This may occasionally have been our favourite dish! Tender beef ideas are tossed with the most effective crispy potatoes and nikkei sauce. It’s heaven in a bowl.
Piña Colada Crème Brûlée
Final however definitely not least, we ordered the Piña Colada Crème Brûlée. I do know this can be a daring assertion, however Mar y Sol formally serves the most effective crème brûlée in Dallas. The thick and creamy custard has a touch of coconut and passionfruit and is available in a hollowed-out pineapple with an orchid, strawberries, and dragonfruit.
