Welcome to dLeña, a Wood-Fire Mexican Cocina & Mezcaleria by Chef Richard Sandoval.

dLeña is derived from the Spanish word “leña,” meaning firewood. The restaurant is centered around it’s wood-burning grill - a nod to the rustic open-fire cooking techniques of Mexico’s past.

The menu transports diners to Mexico through a multi-sensory experience in every bite of the signature smoked entrées, fresh ceviches, and unique sharing plates. The expansive bar features hand-crafted margaritas, Latin cocktails, cervezas and vino.

CHEF'S TABLE EXPERIENCE:
Book an exclusive dining experience at our chef’s table tucked behind the main bar facing into the open kitchen. Chef will prepare eight courses for 160.00 per guest, with an optional beverage pairing for 75.00 per guest. Please visit our Chef's Table OpenTable page to book:

We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday and our anniversary. Loved the esthetic appropriately decorated for Christmas. Our server Merybeth was exceptional! She was welcoming very attentive, and anticipated our needs. Merybeth made our whole experience rate it 5 stars. Now the food, we ordered the Tomahawk steak with Zanahorias al carbon(roasted heirloom carrots) and papa al horno(wood-fired baked potato). The steak was cooked at medium temperature, juicy, tender and seasoned to perfection. The steak was infused with herbs flambé at our table side which made the experience exquisite! We also ordered the Queso fundido with beef and ceviche Amarillo which very delicious. Everything was beautifully plated! We will definitely be coming back!

We loved the all you can eat brunch experience. We tried almost everything and it was all delicious. One issue was that drinks took a bit long to come out which was a little disappointing since we were doing bottomless drinks and had a time limit to order. Nonetheless, our waiter took really good care of us. We also did the 1:30 reservation which I think is the last reservation they take for brunch because towards the end of the meal, we were told we have to be out of the restaurant by 3:20 to allow for the change over to dinner. We had about two full hours to eat and drink so that wasn’t a big issue but definitely something to keep in mind when booking your time. Overall, we had a good time here and I would definitely come back to try dinner and check out the lounge.

We do apologize for the delay with the drinks during your bottomless brunch. We completely understand how important timing is, and we’ll work with our team to improve. It’s wonderful to know you still had a great time, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for dinner or a visit to the lounge. Thank you for choosing us—we look forward to making your next experience even better!

It took a while to get here. Wish I could say the wait was worth it. It was just “Okay” the menu had a few highlights but mostly felt like alot of ingredients were selected not because they go well together but to make a statement. Due to this do not expect the menu items to have a traditional taste. For some, untraditional Mexican is good and for others it’s not. Thats why I say it’s “Okay”
dLeñaReageerde 1 dag geleden
Yes indeed! We love serving innovative, fresh, authentic, upscale Mexican cuisine with a twist! We're excited your visit with us was an exciting experience. We truly appreciate your opinion and we understand that food preferences differ among individuals. Thank you for sharing your perspective with us and we hope to win you back for another try!

My only challenge with this wonderful restaurant was finding the front door:) The house margarita was perfect and full of flavor. The waitstaff is very attentive - your water glass will be full! The ambiance was warm and visually this was a beautiful spot. and the food.... that was so delicious! The presentation was art. I look forward to revisiting on my next trip here.

Looking forward to welcoming you back on your next trip. ¡Salud!
