The ambience of blaring Latin pop sometimes gives way to live music giving the cafe a comfortably laid-back vibe.

    IT'S NOT HARD to find restaurants claiming to be Mexican, even in Seattle: Every neighborhood's got one. But if your quest is for Latin flavors more complex than Nogales' finest, this is just not your town. No wonder I headed for Mojito Caf鬠named ... More »
