The best things in life are worth waiting for and that can definitely be said for Bracero Cocina de Raiz, the long-anticipated modern Mexican restaurant by famed Baja celebrity chef, Javier Plascencia. The two story 4,800 square foot eatery made its debut on Kettner Boulevard in Little Italy in July 2015. Mike Spilky, who has been behind most of the early changes in restaurant growth of the Little Italy area, represented the landlord and tenant in this lease.
