Elvis is in the house—Chef Elvis Bencomo, that is. With co-owners Monica (Elvis’ wife) and Orlando (his brother), Pasión Latin Fusion serves up dishes found throughout Latin America with Elvis’ own creative flair. Monica runs the front of the house and her gracious, lively style makes you feel right at home. To eat, there are fish tacos crusted in banana, garnished with pickled onions, avocado and sauce. The succulent carnitas tacos and George’s pescado à la Veracruzana are spectacular. The “croque señorita” is Elvis’ version of a croque-madame—a seared pork chop, fried egg and Swiss cheese served over tacu tacu (Peruvian rice and beans, similar to Cuba's moros y cristianos) with a huacatay (Peruvian mint) cream sauce.

Cosmo Tapas is in the space that once housed the Martini Grille, which has the benefit of already feeling like a well-worn pair of jeans. With an ambitious menu of tapas from around the world, the continental theme is bolstered by enclosing menus inside manila envelopes stamped “International Courier.” The crowd that turns out for the music nights is young and diverse. The mixed drinks are interesting and, for the most part, good (try the Samba). Filling up on small plates can get expensive, but there are bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese, lollipop lamb chops with olive tapenade and scallops al pil-pil . Or look to the rotating entrée specials as a more cost-conscious way to squelch your appetite. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)
