Bodega Taco Bar

When asked “About Bodega”, we have to make a quick decision— do we go with the sound bite or with the story? Since the question is usually asked in the restaurant when margarita shaking is at double time, a quick “modern Mexican with an urban beach vibe” works best.

Now, here’s the story. We signed our lease with no real idea what it was going to be (this is not as uncommon as you might think). We had collaborated on restaurants before, a trendy Cuban night spot and a beachy oyster bar on steroids. Obviously, we were into this escapism thing and wanted to keep the ball rolling. So off we went eating and drinking our way across the food capital of the world– Brooklyn.
