Aguila y Sol Review

Aguila y Sol 
$$-$$$, Mexican, Contemporary, Polanco
Fodor's Review:
Chef-owner Marta Ortiz Chapa brings considerable experience and creativity to her nueva cocina mexicana -- she's the author of eight cookbooks on regional Mexican cuisine. Here's your chance to try indigenous produce with a new spin, such as an appetizer of tortitas de huauzontle (a green vegetable) with goat cheese, Parmesan, and a chile pasilla sauce, or a main course of salmon in a maize crust with clams. Portions are kind of small, so it's a good thing that there's a great dessert selection; we recommend the crème brûlée with a carnation-petal jelly. Also look for traditional drinks such as flor de jamaica (hibiscus-flower drink) or, in cold weather, ponche de manzana (apple punch).

Totally dull. Good food but not great, ambience non existant. Terrible location. Just a block away live is thriving. Maybe if they moved...
