With an interior and patio as colorful and artsy as the cuisine itself, the experience at Los Companeros begins before you even sit down. The Mexican eatery makes an instant impression with its brightly colored chairs, murals splashed across the walls, and a somehow cohesive mix of bright patterns.

What’s more, almost everything on the menu is gluten-free (with a few listed exceptions), so you’ll rest easy knowing the cuisine is both authentic and healthy. Start with corn tortillas stuffed with carnitas, shrimp, or chicken, or try the quesadillas filled with a blend of gooey cheese and shrimp. Pair your chosen snacks with a signature cocktail such as the spicy house margarita. It combines tequila and triple sec with a splash of simple syrup, fresh lime juice, and a few slices of jalapeno or serrano chili, all muddled together, shaken, and strained, then garnished with your choice of chili or lime. For the main course, dig into the carne asada or Yucatan-style grilled chicken, perhaps with some yucca fries or Spanish rice on the side.
