Update on La Catrina Lounge in Bethesda (Photos)
Construction continues inside the future La Catrina Lounge at 4935 Cordell Avenue in downtown Bethesda. The Mexican restaurant is now hiring staff. Its Instagram account is now active, as well.
I"m glad to have another nightlife option, but this one may be doomed to fail. The owners have zero restaurant experience. I guess they don't know the area well, as they were exclaiming how they are bringing great Mexican cuisine from Oaxaca province to the area -- seemingly forgetting about long-standing Casa Oaxaca two blocks over.
3:33 - And Casa, as you mentioned, is very good and well run. This site needs to be blown up. The building design is horrible and uninviting. The curb appeal there is nonexistent.
It would seem in some instances, Anonymous is synonymous with owners of Casa Oaxaca…which as I mention, has terrible service, every time, and food which you could make better yourself at home. Give a new place a chance.
Taco joints, coffee houses and French cafes. My gosh, can't we get any variety here?
ReplyDeleteI wish them luck!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fun place. Hopefully it stimulates the otherwise moribund nighttime economy in Bethesda.
