    This is a welcomed restaurant to Hyde Park! Good mexican food has been a missing element in Hyde Park and Cantina Rose fills a much needed void. First, and I think the focus is intended to be Cocktails, the drink list looks great. I had the Paddle Cactus and it had a great refreshing taste and a note of the mezcal loomed in the background. Very delicious. My highlight was the food. I order the Ceviche and Barbacoa de Borrego. Both were phenomenal. The Ceviche has a wonderful balance and not too spicy, but came with what I thought was a very spicy Arbol salsa. It allowed me the ability to dial in just the right amount of heat for me. The leche de tigre was also delicious. I had to resist the urge to pick up the plate and slurp the leche down. The Barbacoa was a big hit. The lamb fell apart and was extremely favorful. The rice was perfect. The fresh lime brought out a bright crisp taste. And the corn tortilla we fresh and hot. For dessert, I had the Pecan Cookies. They transported me back to every Mexican wedding I went to as a child as these cookies always appeared as an end of the celebration treat. They were a special treat for me. Other may find them dry, but that is how they are intended to be. Make sure you have a drink to accompany them. I had the Activo Whiskey (I didn't know they made a whiskey) and it was a perfect match for the cookies. I have enjoyed Activo Tequilas in the past and this whiskey had a nutty flavor and smooth balance, but with a little bite. It had similar note to the Activo Extra Anejo. I can't wait to go back and try more of the dishes and drinks.

    Excellent addition to Hyde Park! Ambiance is beautiful and service is great, as to be expected by an Erick Williams venture.
