The green tomatillo salsa was too sour for my taste, but the darker roasted salsa was delicious!

Rockfish aguachile – MXDC Cocina Mexicana

Rockfish aguachile - MXDC Cocina Mexicana
Cucumber, chile pequin, red onion, lime. Happy hour $6
MXDC Cocina Mexicana, Washington DC

This wasn’t my favorite because the dressing was way too salty! It did have nice flavors with a spicy kick and the fish (what little of it there was) was tender. There was an anise or five spice flavor that I couldn’t quite place, but it was unexpected and enjoyable.
