Well, a new spot in the city has brought all of that and more under one roof at Mehico, on Ho Chi Minh Sarani. The new cantina and bar is nestled in a 126-year-old building with a striking white facade with arches and colonnades. Inside, large windows overlook a tortilleria where fresh tortillas are made. The 1,900 sqft space features Oaxacan-inspired décor, including murals and neon signs.
