Este Oeste’s Tasting Menu Brings Unique Spanish Food to The Mission

Overproof has an interesting concept: every three months they completely transform the space and the menu, focusing on a different locale’s food and booze. The previous incarnation was Double Back, a whiskey inspired “Izakaya Saloon”. Last night was the unveiling of their newest adventure, Este Oeste, an ode to the cuisine of Spain and the country’s love of gin and sherry.

Kilowatt: Where mid-20s Daydreams Were Lost and Found
