Mexicana

Mexicana Review

It's almost small enough to miss it as you head up Bograshov Street toward the main drag on Ben-Yehuda, but it's worth watching for if you're hankering after Mexican food. Spices are toned down for the Israeli palate, but tell the kitchen if you prefer some kick and they'll ratchet up the jalapenos for you. A specialty is Sombrella, strips of chicken or entrecote stir-fried with vegetables and served in a confit of red peppers and chipotle. Pizza is also on the menu, with a tortilla-like crust. Business lunch at Mexicana means a 20% discount (Sunday-Thursday from noon to 5) on the whole menu.
