More about The Blind Burro
The room leans into a beach theme, with seashell-lined walls, beach glass set into the bar tops and Talavera tile. Long communal tables fill the dining room, and the corner bar opens onto a patio at the intersection of 7th and J. Margaritas and sangria are the house drinks, alongside craft beer and wine. Executive chef Beto Suarez runs the kitchen, and on weekend nights live acts play on a small space called the Ocho Stage.
