Description

The cooking at Emma Perez's place has always bespoken these sorts of refinements. Her kitchen executes her multi-page menu with confidence and consistency, as adept with surf—a beautiful and delicious lime-marinated tilapia fanned atop a red-pepper sauce, a ceviche that's among the area's best—as with turf. Grilled beef hearts amount to a cheap steak dinner, and the weekend-only ají­ de gallina, shredded chicken in a creamy sauce of eggs, olives, and milk, achieves a certain alchemy when mixed with its side of rice.

Even if you're stuffed, you can't leave without a bite of Perez's homemade alfajores—anise shortbread cookies filled with caramel. Sublime.
(Review by The Washington Post 2011)

Also good: Ceviche; Cubano sandwich; papa rellena, mounds of potato stuffed with seasoned meat; causa, rounds of soft-cooked potato with chicken salad or shrimp and avocado; fried whole trout.

Open Monday through Saturday for lunch and dinner, Sunday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. the cooking at Emma
