Lacayo

For the past two years, it has been our greatest honor to share the vibrant culture and flavors of Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula with you. Your support has fueled our passion and solidified our place in the Cedar Rapids community. Together, we’ve exchanged stories, shared laughter, built friendships, and learned from one another.

Through the challenges of the past year, we’ve made many sacrifices to keep our doors open. But today, we face our hardest one yet—we must say goodbye.

This decision is heartbreaking, but above all, we want to express our deepest gratitude. To our regulars who have shown us so much love, thank you for embracing us, for your unwavering support, and for making us feel truly at home in this community. We could not have done this without you.

We are also profoundly grateful to our incredible team. Their dedication, passion, and warmth have brought Lacayo to life each day, making every guest feel welcome. They are the heart and soul of our restaurant, and we are so proud of them.

Our final farewell will be on April 11th, and until then, we hope to share a few more special moments with you. Join us in the coming weeks as we feature some favorites and celebrate the memories we’ve made together.

With love and gratitude,
❤️Armina & Daniel Lacayo

We were included in a lovely article about our Restaurant Week feature in The Gazette.
This is the last weekend to participate in Restaurant Week, so pop by and try our 18 hour braised achiote pork ribs, and get your punch card stamped! 🍽️🐷

Ooooh cabana boi! 😉🌴
The best way to really describe this cocktail is to use the descriptive words of the cocktail creator, our bar manager, Jayson:
“It’s like sitting poolside; with coffee on your breath, drinking a tropical cocktail, and watching the sexy cabana boy clean the pool.”
