Casa Kantuta

Casa Kantuta is a cocktail bar inspired by Bolivian culture!

It is the brainchild of two hermanos who immigrated from Bolivia to the DC area in the ‘90s and want to share their rich culture and ancestral traditions with the DC scene.

The CK team wants to thank every single one of you who came out to see us last night! We hope we made you all feel en casa. You really helped us raise the roof and drank us dry, so unfortunately, we'll be closed today, 09/01. We hope you all felt proud walking into a place inspired by our culture and our ancestors, until next time,

-The CK Team! 🇧🇴🎉
