Chef Diana Davila    

Chef and Owner of Mi Tocaya Antojeria

Mi Tocaya Antojeria is a neighborhood Mexican restaurant from acclaimed Chef Diana Davila. Mi Tocaya, or “my namesake” in Spanish, is commonly used as a term of endearment when someone has the same name as oneself. Through food & drink, guests will be invited to share in Davila’s cherished memories of her summers and extensive travels throughout Mexico with her family. The thoughtfully composed menu features a progression of small, medium and large plates composed of Davila’s takes on familiar Mexican favorites; less known regional specialties; and completely new dishes that are inspired by her Mexican heritage.
