“The true essence of an asado engages family and friends long before the food hits the table.”
- Nick & Christie Carrera
Live Fire Grilling
The spirit of an Argentinian asado is family-friend oriented and focused more on the journey as opposed to the destination. While delicious food is included, an asado values the process of cooking and preparing the food as it facilitates a bond with loved ones. Our chefs employ Argentinian-inspired cooking methods including ember roasting, smoking and live-fire parilla grilling.
Urban Asado & Leña
Urban Asado is where it all started. Located on the San Sebastian river on Riberia Street where the shrimp boats dock, the original location is home to our grill fabrication studio.
Leña, in partnership with Urban Asado, is our custom mobile asado experience for private events and pop ups.
Scratch Kitchen
In our fully inclusive kitchen, we prepare bread, spices, sauces, and dressings in-house. The integrity of every dish is considered, from the initial idea, to intentional sourcing, to full utilization.
The Ecosystem
We embrace full utilization while enhancing dining experiences for a diverse range of guests. Our culinary “ecosystem” reflects a strong commitment to inclusivity. The entire fabricated animal finds purpose, trimmings are used for stocks, and our bread is repurposed for croutons and crackers. Rather than relying on countless outsourced ingredients, we focus on simplicity and culinary creativity within our own network. Minimizing food waste is a cornerstone of our philosophy.
Craft Cocktails
Our bar program mirrors the integrity of our kitchen, featuring private label barrels, freshly juiced ingredients and house-made bitters, tinctures, and garnishes.
Marketplace
The Marketplace is designed for chefs, by chefs — featuring signature house-made items that are essential to our kitchen. Explore a variety of offerings, including butcher's cuts, chef-crafted seasonings, convenient heat-and-serve meals, freshly baked bread, artisanal mixologist essentials, and much more!
