Guests can expect a night of energy, traditional Mexican dishes, similar to the Ceviche Tostadas and Cohinita Pibil, Braised Pork in Achiote, served at our November 19th event. Dishes will be served family-style alongside inventive, and thoughtfully crafted cocktails.
Tell Me About The Menu
A’Verde’s menu is Chef Katsuji’s opportunity to showcase traditional and unique Mexican flavors that are not always common in the South, while using the region’s best ingredients. Drawing inspiration from the melting pot that is Mexico City, his family table, and other regions of Mexico, Katsuji creates a menu that offers a variety of his favorite dishes, from cornbread and refried beans to pork shanks, octopus tacos, and vegetable-forward dishes with local, seasonal produce.
Dinner will include several of his favorite dishes, stories on the history and inspiration on the dishes, and a variety of thoughtfully-crafted, and photo-worthy cocktails. Reservations can be made here, through our reservation platform.
