Description

Leña Brava brings together the elements of fire and ice in a harmonious way. Drawing inspiration from the multicultural seaside vibes of Baja California Norte, the restaurant celebrates live-fire cooking and offers a variety of world-class wines. The raw bar features tempting dishes like spicy aguachiles and unique ceviches, while the kitchen cooks everything on an open hearth and wood-burning oven. With a stellar selection of mezcal and wines from Valle de Guadalupe, Leña Brava captures the unique flavors of one of Mexico's most vibrant regions.

I've tried a couple of Rick Bayless restaurants, and I'd have to say this one is the best one, solely because of the striped bass.

Ambiance is bustling and vibrantit was loud inside but you could still carry a conversationJust off of the green line.

Amazing food, sat on the bar during happy hour... the hamburger is a double patty, super juicy. The roasted oysters were, WOW and the empanada with the poblano crema was also delish. Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 5

Leña brava’s restaurant week is unmatched! The portions were huge for the price we paid and it was definitely worth it. The drink pairing was a steal for only an additional $25. Our server, Yohhani, was very attentive and made the experience even better. Thanks for making my anniversary very special. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
