La Zaranda
Mexican coastal cuisine comes to North Dallas
5000 W Belt Line Rd Ste 850; Addison; 972.866.8900

If you'd prefer your family dramas involved eating fish rather than sleeping with them, hit La Zaranda. Opening tomorrow, it's the first US resto from a clan of Monterrey seafood specialists, who've outfitted their open-kitchen 100-seater with a Talavera-lined, L-shaped granite bar whose garage door allows both inside & patio seating, plus slatted spherical wooden chandeliers, Frida reproductions touting Latin cuisine, and a 10ft Pisces sculpture made almost entirely out of zarandas -- a tool for grilling fish and preventing Pittsburgh's salvation.

The sprawling menu, which has a light Chinese influence as a result of 19thC Sino-Mex trade routes, breaks down like this:

Seafood: Apps are strong like bull, with Michoacan ahi tostadas (w/ guac, spinach chiffonade, citrus soy, creamy chipotle), Don Pedro-style calamari, and six ceviches. Get bigger with a la carte lobster tacos and blue crab enchiladas, or have the catch of the day done your way: grilled with one of four house sauces, or kitchen-prepped using one of seven methods, including the oyster-sauced, lobster-veloute'd "Tamarind " -- one of the "mother sauces", which mothers often drink to put up with Danzig dating their daughters.

Not Seafood: Dine on deep-fried cubes of rib eye w/ guac & handmade tortillas; corn torts stuffed w/ chicken, black bean sauce & chorizo; and dried-chile-sauced grilled beef tenderloin served with cactus leaves and grilled panela, grilled Piniella being a stale "So, why didn't it work out with the Cubs?"

As for liquids, expect fresh-squeezed Key lime margs fueled by a 40+ strong tequila collection, plus South American vinos, Mexico-only draft beers, and an espresso machine, so that, stuffed and caffeinated, you won't be sleeping with anyone.

Grab some coffee, then kick back and peruse their full menu right here
