The new menu at Casa Prunes is a cornucopia intended to be shared with family and friends. With chef Aaron Mizrahi in charge, the dishes showcase his expertise with the grill, producing star dishes such as the Angus beef Porter House, the Rock Cornish Chicken and the Prunes Wagyu Burger with octopus. Then there are generous the starters such as Tuna and Campechana Tostadas, Quesabirrias and Serrano ham croquettes, with each preparation a feast of flavors and textures.

The salads offer fresh combinations that perfectly complement the fresh pasta dishes, such as the Prunes Lasagna with Angus beef or the Pasta with prawns. As a finishing touch, the homemade desserts, such as the lemon tart with meringue or the Prunes Éclairs, provide a sweet and tasty closure. The attention to detail in the preparation of each dish, from the traceability of the ingredients to the sustainability of the kitchen’s practices and intelligent recycling, all reflect the commitment to local production and respect for the environment.

With a renowned and multi-award-winning cocktail bar, this space brings together those who are passionate about signature mixology and specialized drinks creation techniques. With two laboratories dedicated to the elaboration of unique ingredients, such as redistillates, kefirs, kombuchas, ferments, ice and garnishes, each cocktail is designed to delight the senses and immerse visitors in an unforgettable adventure. From the refreshing Gimlet with tropical infusions to the sophisticated Wilson Mai Tai, the cocktail menu promises to surprise and captivate.

Casa Prunes also offers exclusive spaces for the celebration of a variety of events, such as the Speakeasy, the Chef’s Table, the Agave Room and the Cigar Lounge, where experiences proliferate, and stories come to life.
