The goal for Serrano’s was to design a new concept that kept the 37-year old family owned Mexican restaurant’s brand integrity while reimagining the space with an energetic, stylish new look — setting a precedent for updates to other Serranos locations.
Mark Odom Studio renovated and updated the 6,931 sq ft space giving it a modern cantina vibe, incorporating vibrant hues, elevated craftsmanship and soft warm textures, while maintaining an easy going, comfortable atmosphere.
The immediate standout is the stunning front entry as large hand-crafted hacienda-style doors welcome guests. Another key design element is the rolling pin wall that tells the story of the family bond, generational recipes, and fresh homemade tortillas.
