Carlos Miguel's Mexican Bar & Grill, Monument

Comfort foods from both sides of the border appear on Carlos Miguel's Mexican Bar & Grill's menu. Chefs rely on traditional Mexican cooking techniques to craft a daily array of unique dishes. Meals may commence with table-side guacamole service, featuring a spontaneous grind of tomato, onion, cilantro, chopped jalapeño, creamy avocado, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. From-scratch dishes, including vibrant salsas and playful street tacos, arrive alongside large entrees, including the signature pollo borracho. This steam-cooked chicken breast comes stuffed with poblano chiles, fresh mushrooms, red bell peppers, and cotija cheese, and is crowned with a spicy creamy habanero sauce. Seafood lovers can try the jumbo shrimp sauteed in garlic cream butter, tequila, lime juice, fresh chopped tomatoes, and cilantro.
