The former home of an iconic eatery has a sleek new look as Camino Coctelería & Cocina.
The big picture: The team behind Totopo Cocina & Cantina in Mt. Lebanon and Tocayo in Shadyside opened Camino earlier this month in the old Del's Bar & Ristorante space along a busy stretch of Liberty Avenue near the Bloomfield Bridge.
The vibe: Guests can grab a seat at the bar or settle into the laid back, airy dining room, framed by vivid Mexico City-inspired murals and desert greenery.
Dig in: Camino serves contemporary Mexican dishes with a broad, build-your-own bent — from customizable burritos, fajitas, bowls and tacos to entrées like the ribeye carne asada ($22).
- Finish with caramel-drizzled churros ($10) or homemade Mexican custard ($8).
The intrigue: The bar leans into tequila and mezcal with specialty cocktails like the Picosa — a smoky, spicy mix of Jose Cuervo Devil's Reserve, mezcal, homemade syrup and hibiscus, tamarind or pineapple ($13) — plus after-dinner options like the rum-infused, churro-topped Horchatini ($12).
Flashback: Camino is the third restaurant to occupy the 4,000-square-foot building since Del's — a neighborhood mainstay for more than 60 years — closed in 2015.
- The space saw two short-lived barbecue joints — Jabo's Smoque House and Sugar & Smoke — come and go until Camino owners purchased it in 2021.
