Rosepepper's recent arrival has made for much excitement on the East Side of the Cumberland, ushering in curious neighbors and west-siders looking for a Rio Bravo alternative. The patio is the place to be in this cozy and tasteful cantina -- the glass-walled fountain is mesmerizing -- but you can also opt for a table indoors to catch the mariachi merriment that takes place nightly. Southwest sunset colors and weathered candelabras add ambiance to Rosepepper, where you can sample carne asada with barracho prawns or graze on the three types of fresh salsa and the Buffalo White Cheese Dip with chorizo. Don't look for dishes that will set your senses aflame -- the cuisine is Sonora style, which focuses on flavor, not fire. If you're looking at a substantial wait, grab a seat at the comfortable bar, savor a standout margarita and enjoy a spirited Mexican love song. -- Malia Gail Franklin
