    We loved our meal at Popoca and have already recommended it to friends. They had a variety of lovely dishes, even the "GUACA-MOL", which I wasn't sure about because wouldn't it just be like regular guacamole? NO, it was so herbaceous and delicious, definitely a different take on dishes you've seen before. The pork chop was the best we'd ever had, it was so juicy and had a flavorful sauce and veggies with it. A really wonderful mix of herbs, pickles and textures in all of the dishes, and the portions were plentiful.

    The food is excellent! We had the Chipotle Marinated Shoulder Pork Chop with Brussels Sprouts and Wild Scallops à la Plancha with Brazilian green curry sauce, carrot-radish-spinach salad. Both were out of this world! We started with appetizers that were all outstanding - Salmon Tiradito Tostadas, Smoked Salmon Fritters “Beignets”, Bravant Potatoes and the Mango Avocado and Market Green Salad. And we completed our dinner with the Warm Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding with Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream!! Best dessert EVER!!! Servicer was excellent and engaging. A lovely evening all around! Don’t make the mistake of parking in the City Center Garage - it’s very expensive. For less than half the price you can park in the Marriott garage across the street.
