Qué Padre
at Palisades Village

A laid-back atmosphere invites guests near and far to join the fiesta with a sun-soaked dining experience.

Locally sourced ingredients bring a homegrown flair to this coastal cantina, offering a crave-worthy menu of street-style tacos and shareable plates packed with the freshest of flavors from all over Mexico. From the cool comfort of the coastal California breeze to the kitchen's mouthwatering scents, the heartbeat of this spirited eatery awakens a celebration of life that you can taste in every sip, every bite.

Art Direction

This lively logo is intended to feel modern yet nostalgic with a relaxed California beach vibe. The thick and thin strokes of the typeface evokes a feeling of dancing and movement. The pattern is a nod to Mexican tiles while the inviting color palette features a “Terracotta” and “Noche Azur”.

For the photography, I wanted the images to pop and feel editorial with bright lighting and strong shadows. The colors and contrast really ensure that the ingredients and textures of food and beverages were highlighted.
