The “27” in the name refers to the number of Latin American countries, but it also reflects this stylish restaurant’s culinary diversity. In a large, dramatic space, Nacional 27 offers Nuevo Latino dishes that blend flavors and influences from throughout Central and South America. Starters include ceviche sampling platters with shrimp, scallops, ahi tuna and cold-smoked Tasmanian salmon. The menu also offers tapas (such as miniature lamb tacos with avocado salsa and smoked chicken empanadas), a five-course tasting menu, and à la carte dishes including a delicious grilled marinated skirt steak. If the food itself doesn’t get you dancing, the restaurant’s resident DJ will get you on the floor with weekend salsa and merengue music. (Have a spiked apple cider to best bring out your dance moves.)
