The family behind Hacienda La Paloma

Since 1985

Our story

Ten businesses, forty five years in this country, and one kitchen in Mount Kisco.

The name

La Paloma means the dove.

The name conjures Mexico, where magic and joy are part of ordinary life. A time of splendor. A particular art of color and mystery. We put the dove on the sign because it is what we wanted the room to feel like.

Hacienda La Paloma is the tenth business built by a first generation immigrant family. Across forty five years in the United States, we have learned how to cook for our neighbors without cooking down to them.

How we cook

Three things we will not shortcut.

Sauces

Mole takes a day

Chiles toasted by hand, then ground with chocolate, nuts and spice. There is no version of this that comes out of a jar, so we do not keep one.

Service

Guacamole at the table

Mashed in volcanic stone in front of you, seasoned to your heat. It is the oldest piece of equipment in the building and the one we use most.

Sourcing

Fish that day

Red snapper wrapped in banana leaf, ceviche cut to order, paella built from shellfish that arrived that morning. If it is not right, it does not go out.

The bar

Voted best margarita
in Westchester.

Fresh lime, no sour mix, and a tequila list worth reading. Happy hour runs Monday through Friday from four to seven, and the tapas menu runs right alongside it.
