After a whirlwind of activity getting ready the El Chupacabra Mexican restaurant opens today April, 8.
The West Seattle Herald and contributing photographer David Rosen had a chance to see the new restaurant/bar during the soft open on Thursday evening (see slideshow), and as was previously reported the new business joins the original in Greenwood offering cocktails, burritos and tacos including what has been selected by other publications as The Best Margarita in Seattle.
The El Chupacabra will have these beers on tap:
Negra Modelo
Modelo Especial
Pabst Blue Ribbon
Mens Room Red
They carry all the basics of liquor but being a Mexican restaurant they of course feature tequila offering twenty different brands.
The staff on hand for the opening will be Shelbe Sheppard, Tyson Rogers, and Clayton Wright.
Getting everything done in time for the deadline was the result of many hands.
"The process took a lot of hard work and it was really fun to see how the place came to life. I'm super excited about opening up tonight," said owner Aaron Wright, " I couldn't have done it if it weren't for my kickass staff members and my cooks. It's gone way better than I had ever imagined."
El Chupacabra will be open at 11:30 am Monday through Saturday with a Sunday Brunch for $6.95 starting at 10:00 am.
