Taberna Mexicana: Redefining the Mexican Dining Experience
May 14, 2011
Executive Chef Alex Padilla will bring a lifetime of flavor and tradition with the arrival of Taberna Mexicana Beverly Hills. Alex Padilla's diverse culinary background includes extensive years of formal training under some of the most revered chefs in the nation, including Nancy Oakes of famed San Francisco eatery Boulevard. In addition, Chef Padilla spent time researching and honing his craft in Mexico and Europe, bringing this cross-regional and generational flair to each presentation on the Taberna menu. Signature selections include a wide range of Ceviches, Cochinita Pibil, Pumpkin Seed Crusted Scallops, Tequila Poached Shrimp Cocteles, Crab Cake Rolls with Roasted Garlic Poblanos Sauce, Carne Asada with Mole Rub and Chili-Garlic Butter, Sopa De Albondigas, Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder with Guajillo Pepper Sauce, Pacific Spiny Lobster with Tequila Mushrooms and Roasted Potatoes and a selection of taco plates, including Filet Mole Tacos.
Signature selections from the drink menu, created by Bobby Heugel of Houston's Anvil Bar & Lounge, include margaritas made with seasonal fruit (cherries and blood oranges for spring), Mole Montage, made with spiced rum, classic mole spices, and ginger beer, La Margarita de Taberna, made with fresh lime and agave nectar, Aztec Affection, made with vodka, lemon, and agave nectar, Jalisco Attitude, made with jalapeno tincture, tequila, lime, and cilantro, Pisco Punch, made with pisco, grapefruit, lime and pineapple, and Hellfire Patch, made with habanero infused vodka, strawberries, lemon and turbinado.
The unique and flavorful menu is highlighted by an equally clever and artful design. The restaurant space, designed by Phoenix based architect anddesign firm, Bar Napkin Productions, seamlessly fuses a casually sophisticated dining atmosphere with a lively lounge scene. With design details that pay tribute to classic Mexican cultural elements, a vibrant color scheme, and custom designed lighting accents and furnishings, this 4,200 square foot space offers flavor for all the senses.
Taberna Mexicana has indoor and patio seating for 110, including 12 bar stools, 22 inside tables, and 6 outside tables.
Taberna Mexicana is located at 369 North Bedford Drive and will be open seven days a week for lunch and dinner from 11 a.m. to midnight, Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to midnight, Saturday and Sunday. The telephone number is 310.858.7070. Valet parking is available.
