Kokopelli Grill – Mexican
Kokopelli Grill captures the spirited essence of the coast, where the air is thick with the aroma of charred oysters and the inviting sizzle of an active kitchen. The experience dances between the sea and the shore, pairing succulent Dungeness crab and sweet coconut-crusted shrimp with the smoky, indulgent heat of chorizo queso fondido. It is a place of vibrant energy and bold flavors, where every plate serves as a colorful tribute to fresh, sun-drenched ingredients and soulful culinary craftsmanship.
