La Catrina Mexican Bistro
7.6
La Catrina Mexican Bistro is a decorated 10th Avenue spot where margaritas, long happy hours, and tacos share space with Dominican touches and brunch. It’s more of a sit-down bistro than a quick counter, drawing groups for cocktails, music, and plated tacos before a night out.
