Copita Tequileria y Comida
"It all started over a margarita, two to be exact. In 2011, Larry Mindel challenged me to a margarita-making contest. Although I was the clear victor, Larry was inspired by my passion for tequila and love of anything relating to Mexican food, convincing him that I was the perfect business partner. Copita Tequileria y Comida was born May 1, 2012. I’ve never looked back!"
-Joanne
Copita Tequileria y Comida is a modern Mexican restaurant and tequila bar created by Joanne Weir and Larry Mindel. The original Copita, located in the heart of the Sausalito waterfront, opened in 2012. Every detail was carefully considered, from the gorgeous artwork by Oaxacan painters and talented staff to the high-quality ingredients and innovative recipes.
This labor of love is now a neighborhood restaurant where guests can enjoy seasonal dishes, a well-curated tequila list, and a number of cocktails to round out the experience.
Now open: Copita Willow Glen in San Jose, California!

Food & Wine Magazine's Kristen Donnelly says: "They design dishes around their incredible ingredients, for example, showcasing local citrus with avocado in a lime-and-cilantro-dressed salad or crusting Point Reyes oysters simply in polenta before frying and serving with a chile de árbol tartar sauce."
