Destino

This South American restaurant is a favorite with locals looking for a fun place to gather. Its ambience is that of a bistro, comfortable and welcoming, and tapas are the name of the game. They include ceviches, empanadas, spicy scallop cakes, sauteed tiger prawns with sofrito puree, and blackened duck breast. Salmon, grilled sirloin strips, and quinoa with grilled vegetables are also available. Well-selected wines and cocktails promise apt accompaniments; there's also a prix fixe menu and a Sunday brunch.
