At Monarca on Carrall Street, the menu showcases dishes that balance comfort, craft, and bold Mexican flavour. The sides set the tone: Rajas Poblanas Con Elote brings a gentle heat from roasted poblano strips enriched with sweet corn and a creamy finish, while Crispy Brussels Sprouts arrive deeply caramelized, offering a nutty crunch that pairs beautifully with their subtle seasoning. Frijoles Charros add rustic heartiness, a slow-simmered bowl that feels both traditional and indulgent.
The tacos highlight Monarca’s ability to elevate familiar formats. Los De Rib Eye deliver tender, juicy beef with just enough char to make each bite memorable. Los De Cochinita lean into the richness of slow-cooked pork, fragrant and deeply seasoned, while Tacos De Camaron offer a lighter contrast, with shrimp that remain plump and bright against their chosen toppings.
In the larger plates, the kitchen shows its most expressive work. Pollo En Mole De Xico Y Huilacoche blends earthy corn fungus with a silky mole that transforms simple chicken into something layered and compelling. Short Rib En Mole De Cafe Y Cereza is a standout-fall-apart meat wrapped in a sauce that balances bitterness, sweetness, and smoke. Enchiladas Gratinadas complete the lineup with satisfying richness, each tortilla folded into a bubbling, cheese-kissed finish.
