A really good dream transports you to another world where every discovery is captivating and delightful. So it is with Suenos, which means "dreams" in Spanish. Suenos reflects Executive Chef/Owner Sue Torres' love of all things Mexican. From the decor, to the selection of tequilas, to the insistence on a true cocinera, or tortilla lady, working on a comal in the main dining room, Torres pays homage to the centuries of tradition that have woven together Mexico's flavors and ingredients.

In Short – Down a little alley and past the overflowing, convivial front bar area, the dining room glows in shades of peach, fuchsia and tangerine. Plush booths surround a glassed-in terrarium, adding a bit of air and spectacle to a space that might otherwise feel cramped. The dense, salty guacamole is absolutely superlative; a fava bean and goat cheese empanada is a light and delicious starter. Goat chunks, steamed to implausible tenderness in beer and coated with a thick, smoky spice rub make a memorable entree, as do enchiladas filled with roasted chicken and squash blossoms and…

Yummy

by francis70

My friends have been bugging me to go to Suenos for a while and I finally got there recently. Delicious food that tasted very fresh and cooked perfectly. Drinks were also excellent as was the waitress we had that night. Definitely recommended

nothing special

by tomrady75

Didn't think the food was really impressive - it was not horrible, but nothing special. Ordered the baby spinach and the hanger steak . Both were pretty forgettable.

Didn't really enjoy the ambiance or service either. The service wasn?t so good as I thought.

This place has definitely been on my list of places to go for a while, glad I can finally check it off! Won't be going back - too many better places in town.
