What people say
If you're a fan of Venezuelan cuisine, then Essentials Kitchen in Katy, Texas is definitely worth checking out. This South American restaurant offers a unique twist on traditional dishes that will leave your taste buds wanting more. From their Cuban camarones enchilados to their Mechada (shredded beef stew), roasted pork and shredded chicken stew, there's something for everyone on the menu.
But it's not just the food that makes Essentials Kitchen stand out. The restaurant also places a strong emphasis on creating an enjoyable dining experience for its customers. They believe that music is an important part of this experience and regularly host live performances by talented musicians such as Guillermo Serpa with his classic Spanish guitar, saxophonist Marco Rivas and Fernando Showman Lezama.
And if you're looking for something truly special, be sure to check out their Underground Dinners which are reinvented every month. One such event was the Latin Romance with Mary Frometa and Fernando Lezama giving us Noche de Boleros Una Vez al Mes.
So if you're in the Katy area and looking for a delicious meal accompanied by great music and atmosphere, make sure to visit Essentials Kitchen at 2731 FM 1463 or check out their website at www.essentialskitchen.com.
