From acclaimed Phoenix chef Silvana Salcido Esparza, Barrio Cafe Gran Reserva is like the smaller yet ultra-sophisticated sister of the original Barrio Cafe on Calle 16 in Central Phoenix. Gran Reserva is an art-filled Mexican restaurant located in the scrappy, colorful Grand Avenue Arts District, in the former home of the Bragg Pie Factory. The vintage setting, mural-embellished walls, friendly service and views of the downtown Phoenix skyline set the mood for a quiet and refined evening. The highlight of Barrio Cafe Gran Reserva is the tasting menu, which features the chef's highly personal, elevated riffs on regional Mexican cooking. Check out the drink list, too, which features a strong roster of Mezcal and Mexican wines.
