If you can’t escape to coastal Mexico (or anywhere) this spring, the latest restaurant from the team behind Espita Mezcaleria and Ghostburger may be the closest thing. The two-in-one Mexican restaurant, Las Gemelas which means “twin girls” in Spanish channels a beach-y vibe with a dual set of all-day concepts: a “fast-fancy” taqueria with a walk-up takeout window, and a full-service seafood spot that’s good for daily brunch or evening margaritas. The taqueria will open on March 15 at La Cosecha, the Latin food hall near Union Market, followed a week later by the sit-down restaurant.
