Momocho on Fulton Road in Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood has been one of the city’s most celebrated Mexican restaurants since Eric Williams opened it, building a menu around modern Mexican cuisine — house-made salsas, creative guacamoles prepared tableside, and the kind of upscale approach to Mexican food that challenges the Tex-Mex assumptions most Midwesterners carry. It appeared in Season 8, Episode 9 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Twists and Traditions,” which aired March 22, 2010. Guy Fieri found a Cleveland kitchen doing Mexican food at a level the city hadn’t seen before.
