“We’re excited to have such a large space that will be the perfect home for more private events, sports viewing parties, and more. The bar area is huge so we expect a lot of happy hour action as well. We even have some bar-top gaming coming in early 2022,” said Hooper Hospitality Concepts owner Andy Hooper in a press release.
The walls of El Luchador are adorned with custom Luchador mask artwork that complement the restaurant’s brick walls. Seating comes in the form of booths and tables throughout the main dining area with plenty of bar-top and pub-style table seating in the bar area.
