Experiences

Mexico Ancestral @Junction
Multiple dates available
Come experience the magic of ancient Mexican dishes at our limited-time-only, pop-up restaurant led by Junction staff cook, Chef Diego. The menu represents a style of Mexican cooking that incorporates the meticulous preparation and refined techniques of haute cuisine with traditional Mexican ingredients and flavors. The dishes are flavorful but not spicy; but for those that like it hot, ask for the house salsa.

I had the pleasure of dining with a friend for brunch today, and we were delighted by the experience. My friend ordered the chiliquilles, and I indulged in the Spanish French Toast. Both dishes were delicious – perfectly prepared, flavorful, and satisfying. To complement our meals, we enjoyed Mango Mimosas. The portions were generous without being overwhelming. This spot is worth a visit if you're looking for a fantastic brunch! I look forward to trying their dinner menu!

Always a joy to dine here. We had the pleasure of meeting Nick and Ingrid (and Yvette) last year and will make it a yearly tradition to dine here on New Years and other times as well. They featured some specialty items for the evening, signature dishes from two of their chefs, and the items were wonderful. The staff are mindful of the entire restaurant and not just their assigned areas. Keep up the great food, service, and enjoyable atmosphere.

The Junction has wonderful food with excellent service and a very enjoyable atmosphere. Owners Ingrid and Nick are the perfect hostess and chef and all of the staff is very accommodating. We thought the paella was delicious, the halibut excellent and the NY strip delectable, but the highlight is always those tasty empanadas! Such the treat!

Junction is a great experience from start to finish, beginning with easy parking and ending with fresh Churros. The variety of food is great and paella exceptional. The owners are a great couple who make you feel appreciated for dining with them. A large bar where you can eat and there is usually space available. Definitely worth visiting when in Paso!

Amazing quiet restaurant that we stumbled upon. Chef was outstanding and made my celiac daughter feel like she could eat practically everything on the menu. Food was outstanding. Will be back every time we visit.
