Añejo’s dishes are skillfully prepared and elegantly presented, exemplifying the classic foundation of Tex-​Mex but refining it with a creative, bold and modern touch.

With a vibrant and sophisticated atmosphere, a state of comfortable elegance is achieved with a bold design, a lively disposition and a sense of exclusivity.
