The menu is inspired by a small fishing village in Cojimar, Cuba, where even Ernest Hemingway used to keep his boat,” Mena and Rodriguez said. Cuban Chef Jorge Mas, who formerly worked in the Cayman Islands, Barcelonetta and NIU Kitchen, was the perfect fit to bring the menu to life. Sala’o owners searched for a chef who understood their vision to tie in Caribbean seafood flavors, while adding a modern touch to homestyle cooking. The 30-foot bar will be focused on classic Cuban cocktail recipes and will sit 15 guests, who will be entertained by modern Cuban-inspired live music on an elevated wooden stage. Sala’o aims to welcome 85 guests with indoor and outdoor seating available and a welcoming atmosphere. With a cozy, yet opulent living room feel, the eatery is adorned with crystal chandeliers, marble accents and wooden finishes. As patrons step foot into the 2,300-square-foot restaurant, they will feel as if they have traveled back to the 1940s and entered Ernest Hemingway’s home. Hemingway spent many years in Cuba, which drove Mena and Rodriguez to create an eatery to pay homage to the writer. The name Sala’o was born from an Ernest Hemingway novel, The Old Man and the Sea. The restaurant was conceptualized by owners Eliesteban Mena and Oscar Rodriguez who also started Old Havana Cuban Bar and Cocina - a staple in Little Havana just a few blocks away. The Cuban bar and pescaderia aims to please locals and tourists alike.
