Restaurateurs Jesús Chávez, Benjamin Arriola, Jonatan Gómez Luna Torres, Mikel Alonso and Rodrigo Quintanilla teamed up to create a restaurant that blends traditional Mexican dishes with contemporary cooking techniques.
Nestled inside the historic Littlefield Building, Mexta offers a variety of new takes on traditional Mexican dishes, such as shrimp aguachile, slow-cooked pork belly with peanut sauce, arroz con leche and more.
Master mixologist Mica Rousseau helms the drink menu, which includes signatures such as the Mole Old Fashioned, the Palomazo and others designed to pair with the food.
