Notable Picks
8.4
Mexi Stone Street is a mezcal-driven Mexican restaurant on Stone Street with a 400-plus bottle agave collection and a menu of contemporary tacos and snacks. Tacos al pastor, Baja fish tacos, and signature creations like the Asada Crunch and Corn Star tacos lean upscale in both flavor and pricing, drawing cocktail-focused crowds more than quick lunch traffic. The room and patio skew atmospheric and linger-friendly rather than high-turnover.
Must-Try Dishes:
Asada Crunch Taco, Corn Star Taco, Baja Fish Tacos
What Makes it Special: An agave-focused Stone Street bar-restaurant with chef-y tacos and an unusually deep mezcal list.

Mad Dog & Beans is a high-volume Mexican cantina on Pearl Street at the Stone Street corridor, known for massive margarita towers, made-to-order guacamole, and a long menu of Tex-Mex plates.

Food runs crowd-pleasing rather than chef-driven, but the scale and atmosphere make it a go-to for big Mexican-leaning outings downtown.
Must-Try Dishes:
Guac and Chips, Chicken Enchiladas, Steak Tacos
What Makes it Special: A Stone Street–area cantina where oversized margaritas and guacamole towers headline big, loud Mexican nights.

Nachos Toro Loco, Burrito Loco, Guacamole & Chips
