Café Cecilia

Café Cecilia is a cherished neighborhood gem known for its simple, seasonal dishes inspired by Irish and European traditions. Chef Max Rocha brings a personal touch to every plate, drawing from his mother Odette’s cooking and the flavors of his Irish upbringing. What began as his first restaurant has become a destination not only for food lovers but also for the international art and fashion crowd—where comfort, creativity, and community meet around the table.
