This sister spot to Mexico City's Terraza Cha Cha Chá delivers on its name with its upbeat atmosphere. The indoor-outdoor space with West-facing views of DTLA feels like a lush garden, albeit one with hip mid-century modern furnishings. The menu is refreshingly uncomplicated yet inventive with a round-up of botanas, platos principales and well-crafted desserts. The tostada terraza takes a crisp tortilla and piles on lush bluefin tuna with a flutter of fragrant crispy cilantro and a drizzle of chile morita aioli; pollo a las brasas is perfectly roasted and dressed with an achiote piquin sauce. Desserts are a masterpiece, as in a chocolate flan topped with a cocoa crisp flavored with Xila, a mezcal-based agave liquor highlighting the flavors of Puebla and Oaxaca.
