Deets: Richard Sandoval Hospitality, the group behind El Centro D.F., Toro Toro, La Sandia, and more, is pleased to unveil dLeña ROJA, a mezcal lounge beneath dLeña Wood-Fire Mexican Cocina & Mezcaleria, opening Friday, June 11.
Perfect for intimate gatherings, wedding welcome drinks, a birthday celebration, and more, dLeña ROJA comfortably accommodates up to 90 guests standing and 50 guests seated, and is designed by PETERMAX Co. Created to evoke a timeless space, dLeña ROJA can be accessed from a stairwell in dLeña or from a private entrance on 5th Street NW for distinguished guests looking for a bit more privacy. Lavish leather banquettes line the walnut fluted tambour clad walls, creating a warm and cozy environment. The art and decor were locally sourced from second-hand stores around DC and internationally from South America, India, and Mexico, including intricate wall hangings created by artisans in Querétaro.
Hint for the Average Socialite: Reservations are available. The hours for both locations are 5pm to 10pm Sunday through Thursday, and 5pm to 11pm Friday and Saturday. dLeña ROJA hours may expand in the future. For more information on either concept, please visit dlenadc.com
