The experience

Mexican spot with a patio specializing in Oaxacan plates, including house tortillas, and mezcals.

Google Places/ updated 12d ago

Why go

Claro is a $$$ Latin American restaurant with a 4.5 Google rating across 1,094 reviews, and the strongest review language points straight to Oaxacan cooking: mole, bone marrow, seafood, smoked meats, and mezcal-driven cocktails. The praise is not vague—reviewers call out duck mole, short rib, cod, bass, scallops, and a mezcal Negroni with unusual specificity.

Blackbird data backs up the appetite: 2,517 all-time on-chain check-ins, with Friday and Saturday as the busiest days. This reads like a dinner-plan restaurant, not a casual afterthought—built for people who want developed flavors, cocktails with intent, and a bill that matches the ambition.

One especially useful note from the reviews: a diner with celiac called Claro a dream because the food is gluten-free, while emphasizing that the cooking stands on its own for everyone else.
