The restaurant’s energy is given a third world elevation by the melodious tunes of Latin Pop, Salsa, Bachata, Merengue, Samba, Rhumba + Bossa Nova playing in the background. Spices are added to the meat with touches of Pacific Northwest rustic elegance fashioned from polished high-end materials like stone, wood, metal, glass + sumptuous layered fabrics.

We decided to truly enhance your dining experience by sourcing artwork, cushions + tapestries direct from Latin + Spanish countries. We did everything in our power to truly bring to you a dining experience that is laced with beautiful, lively + eclectic intricacies. We do not compromise on quality + we never will.
