This summer, Cherry Creek North will see the arrival of SOL Cocina, joining Blue Island Oyster Bar as the two restaurants in the 250 Columbine project. Construction is set to begin soon on the coastal Mexican eatery, which will occupy more than 6,000 square feet of space, plus a 1,100-square-foot patio.

The Baja-inspired concept, which has locations in Newport Beach, California and Scottsdale, Arizona, comes from executive chef Deborah Schneider. Expect a restaurant that features an open exhibition kitchen with counter seating, and focuses on fresh, sustainable ingredients. The menu will range from various guacamoles to seafood dishes, street tacos, and bigger entree plates. Bar highlights include handcrafted margaritas and a large selection of tequila and mezcal.
