According to a recent permit filing, COA Mexican Eatery and Tequileria will open a third location at 1065 E Sunset Drive in Bellingham.
A representative of COA Mexican Eatery and Tequileria declined further commentary upon What Now Seattle’s request at this time.
Drawing inspiration from their heritage and a shared passion for quality, the brother-sister duo behind COA is described as having cultivated a dining experience that pays homage to their roots while embracing culinary innovation.
The restaurant’s name, “COA,” holds a special significance as it honors the spade-like tool integral to the harvesting of agave plants – the core ingredient in crafting tequila, mezcal, and Sotol. This homage to tradition is reflected in the selection of libations but also every carefully curated dish.
With roots traced back to Durango, Mexico, the owners infuse their culinary creations with flavors reminiscent of their hometown. The fusion of authentic Durango taste, combined with the meticulous touch of a skilled chef, creates an experience that was designed to transport diners straight to the cherished memories of their abuelita’s kitchen. Each bite is described as an invitation to savor the essence of tradition and passion.
The tequila bar at COA features an exclusive collection of 100% agave tequilas and mezcals, with a carefully crafted selection that serves as the foundation for the restaurant’s signature drinks. Whether skillfully mixed into a refreshing cocktail or savored in its pure form, each sip sets out to encapsulate the intricate flavors that only come from fine-aged craftsmanship.
COA’s commitment to inclusivity is evident in its diverse offerings. For those with dietary preferences or restrictions, the menu extends to accommodate gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian choices, ensuring that everyone can indulge in the culinary journey, according to the company website.
