About Trenza

Trenza translates into braid. Behind our name is three strands that make a complete braid. With out latin menu being our main braid, the Indian influence and the techniques of our world complete it.

We have a unique dining experience that you can be a part of every night. Entering into Trenza you will walk into our  lounge with casual dining, then into our elegant dining room that has the view of the open kitchen. But if you want to get really up and close and want to experience first hand, you can sit right at the chef’s bar and interact with the other guests and/or the chefs with a surprise menu. We also have our private dining rooms to have a intimate dinner with your loved ones and select a special menu…

Our cooking school during the day is for those that love to cook and/or want to learn more. We have private classes and set menu classes with special guest chefs. The private classes are anything from a girls day, to a child drop off to have fun with the girlfriends. and for those husbands that need to learn and/or want to learn something on their own for a special dinner. we have it all….
