Vecino
Detroit, US
A restaurant that pirouettes around the phrase ‘buena comida, buena vida’, meaning ‘good food, good life’, has to be a good thing. This modern Mexican, in Detroit’s historic Midtown district, sparks joy the moment you walk in, thanks to its warm-minimalism aesthetic. The menu is a Mexico City and Oaxaca flavourbomb, with one section devoted to masa (dough made from nixtamalised corn) featuring handmade enchiladas layered with duck, salsa verde and cheese; tostadas piled high with tuna, chipotle aioli and avocado; and carrot tinga and crema fresca-filled tetelas. Other dishes are cooked on the wood-fired hearth, a highlight being the asada del día – juicy grilled meat served with onions, tortillas and a smoky salsa. The bar is a very agreeable place to perch; order one of the sharing plates and make your way through the agave-forward cocktails, where tequilas and mezcals are infused with chilli and juniper.

We hold 140 venues in Detroit, MI and could score 21 of them. This one is not among them, so it has no position — not a low one.
There is no score breakdown to show: we haven’t been able to look at this venue’s sourcing yet, so there is nothing to break down. A row of zeroes here would say we checked and found nothing, and we have not checked.
v1.7.4 0.0/100 — NOT YET ANALYZED. We have not been able to look: no findable site or menu, or the site blocks crawlers. This is the absence of a measurement, NOT a finding of 'no sourcing', and must never be presented as one. Score is a floor and carries no information about this venue's quality.
