Esperanza
If you can’t take your mom on a tropical trip to Mexico, take her to Esperanza instead! From the craft margaritas to the sleek, monochromatic interior, Esperanza is a transportive restaurant that is sure to leave your mama speechless. Their menu is huge, but some of our favorite dishes include their various crudos, short-rib taquitos and crispy tacos. Since it’s only a few blocks from the beach, you might even catch a nice sea breeze while sipping on your mezcal margarita.
