EL CHEF LATINO | Our Story

Con el Sabor de lo Nuestro

Since 2011, El Chef Latino has been bringing the homemade flavors of Latin America to Sterling, VA — one handmade dish at a time. This is our story.

In 2011, a chef with 20+ years of fine dining experience opened on Enterprise Street with one goal: cook honest Latin food for the neighborhood. No corporate playbook — just "Con el Sabor de lo Nuestro."
