Gracia

Chef-owner Chester Gerl launched Gracia in 2016, inspired by his deep admiration for Mexican culture and cuisine. The Ballard cocina dishes up favorites like empanadas, tostadas, and tacos served on hand-pressed Oaxacan corn tortillas. 

Chef Gerl strives to remain connected to the local community by supporting local farmers, foragers, and fishmongers. Be sure to check out their tequila and mezcal-driven drink menu featuring creative cocktails and margaritas as well as a curated selection of draft beer and bottled wine. 

Bonus: Stop by on Tuesdays for their Mezcal Martes and enjoy discounted agave spirits— they offer over 250 to choose from!
