Best barrio bargain: Mesa Coyoacn    • Ceviche (Photographs:
David Rosenzweig)  Ceviche (Photographs: David Rosenzweig)  This
city may have its share of dollar tacos, but Mexican restaurants
with more serious ambitions usually come at a higher cost. One
of the rare exceptions is Mesa Coyoacn, the homey spot where
chef Ivan Garcia prepares vibrant—and affordable—recipes
typically found in the neighborhoods of his native Mexico City.
A $10 tomato-based ceviche comes generously loaded with plump
shrimp, tender scallops and pristine raw oysters. Entres, which
average around $13, include unique items like a poblano pepper
stuffed with pork, peach, pear and apple. For cooking this good,
you'd have to fly to the Distrito Federal to pay less. Mesa
