Read MoreWhat an experience! Copal is all that Mexican food strives to be in the US, but falls flat and tries too hard doing so.
From its cute logo, to its selection of mezcals, to its expansive and well thought of menu (with vegetarian options), and its execution, Copal does not let down! This is a 6/5 restaurant that - mark my words - will make it big one day!
The guac and chips were a delight, both, in quality and quantity. In an era where everyone is scrimping and serving the the bare minimum, Copal actually feeds your stomach and your soul! I ordered the mole negro, and was instantly floored by the complex flavors salsa dancing on my tongue - chocolate, cumin, chilis,...The tortillas were next level. This is the stuff they probably serve in Heaven's canteen if God were a Latin. It was a party that I didn't want to end. And so I ordered the flan, which didn't disappoint either.
The mezcal collection, while expansive, was not informative. Simply having the names did not help me make a decision, and the flight I chose wasn't up to the cut. Either way, I would happily make the trip from the Bay Area down to Copal just to bury my face in the mole again!
