About Us
Five-level Hardware Lane venue (former Campari House) from Taylor Granchi and Alex Greco (Repeat Offender, Rufio), with Head Chef Sergio Tourn running a modern Mexican-inspired kitchen where the entire food menu is gluten-free and heavy on plant-based options. Small plates span guacamole, tuna ceviche, corn ribs with tajín, empanadas and tamales; tortillas include Baja rockling, birria beef and barbacoa mushroom; larger plates cover chamoy pork, mole chicken, scotch fillet and grilled barramundi. Rooftop and mezzanine bars pour a long margarita list plus tequila, mezcal and raicilla; promotions on the official site include two-for-one margaritas Mondays, $30 steak Wednesdays, express lunch and bottomless brunch. Book via NowBookIt; note there is no lift—only street-level dining is wheelchair accessible per the functions page.
