Calgary · Est. Southwest
Estrelladel Mar
Smoke, saffron and sea. A grill and bar where slow-smoked meats meet coastal Latin cooking, poured alongside a bar wall of good bottles.
The house
Fire, patience and fresh ingredients
Brisket, short ribs and pork shoulder go into our smoker long before the doors open. What comes out is finished with guava chili, serrano cream and pineapple salsa, the Latin side of the plate, and served in a room built for lingering.
Everything else follows the same rule: fresh ingredients, cooked to order, poured generously.
