CURTIN HOUSE'S NEWEST VENUE MESA VERDE
Melbourne's newest bars and eateries Mesa Verde. Mesa Verde is located on the recently redeveloped 6th floor of Swanston Street's Curtin House building (directly below Rooftop bar) and is named after the fictitious town from the 1971 Western film, A Fistful of Dynamite.
True to the film’s Mexican revolution theme, the restaurant interior resembles a fancy lobby bar overthrown by outlaws. The menu is driven by local ingredients with fresh flavours. A stand out treat is the house-made Hazard hot sauce.
Tequila is the drink of the revolution, taking pride of place at Mesa Verde with a list 150 strong. It's supported by a comprehensive cocktail list and a great selection of local and imported beers and wines.
