Deconstructed Enchilada

Now in it’s fourth year, this delicious year-round destination, ideally located in the heart of Southampton’s Bowden Square, was designed by Ian Duke and David Hilty. They are the also the owners of another one of the East End’s most popular and dynamic nightlife destinations, Southampton Social Club, where Food Network personality and award-winning Executive Chef Scott Kampf, heads up the kitchens at both establishments. New this year is Union Cantina’s Burger Bar, located within the restaurant, offering an assortment of specialty gourmet burgers, fresh hand-cut fries, maniacal milkshakes and desserts, and an elaborate craft beer and small batch bourbon selection.

Fox, Uma Thurman and Brooke Shields—can expect the finest fresh ingredients and hand-crafted favorites that have come to characterize its authentic Mexican food and cocktail menu. Among the diverse and elaborate epicurean offerings is the Mexican Pizza topped with black beans, heirloom tomatoes, black olives layered over a Mexican cheese blend, sour cream and pico de gallo. From the Taco menu, the Blackened Mahi-Mahi with mango pico de gallo, pickled jalapeños, avocado crema is a customer favorite. The Avocado & Hearts of Palm Salad with farm fresh avocado, hearts of palm, local sweet corn, grape tomatoes and oregano lime vinaigrette is offered on the Salad menu. The Deconstructed Enchilada is a Union Cantina specialty worth every bite. There is a variation suited for all appetites, including Skirt Steak, Spicy Shrimp, Adobo Chicken and Seasonal Vegetables. For dessert, diners can indulge in Churros with Nutella dipping cream or the toasted coconut Tres Leches Cake.
