2320 Jazz Alley Tucked into Jazz Alley between 23rd and 24th Streets, Cantina Alley has been bringing Mexico to Midtown since 2017 — and doing it with enough flair to earn Best New Restaurant honors from Sacramento News & Review, along with KCRA A-List wins for Best Mexican Restaurant and Most Trendiest Bar.
