MEJICO, SYDNEY
Juicy wanted to avoid the obvious cliché’s and create a space that reflected the Mexican culture, without becoming a pastiche. Bold, hand painted graphics were used on floors and walls, to set the energy levels high.
The planning of the restaurant brings food to the street, with guacamole, limes, chilli’s and roasted corn as the centrepiece. This wraps into a bar to cater for early diners and those who just want to come for the tequila! The restaurant then sweeps down, mixing communal settings with more traditional banquette seating, anchored with an open kitchen at the rear.
