Once upon a wine, El Carajo was a humble gas station. Thirty years ago, the 1st generation Fonseca father and sons team joined forces to start a family business. The success of the business afforded Richard, one of the sons, the ability to travel and learn about innumerable cultures and customs. He became enamored with the extensive and eclectic collections of wines from around the world. His desire to share his love of wine drove him to provide a wide selection of global wines in his hometown business in 1989. His love of wine led to his love of food, particularly delicious Spanish Tapas. In 2011, the El Carajo Bakery Café opened, bringing the same excellent experience and quality offered in the restaurant, with style and convenience for those on the go. El Carajo houses one of the best and most varied selections of wine in the state of Florida. It has been written about in countless international, national and local publications, rating it one of the best-kept secrets in Miami. Today, the next generation of sons, Richy, Javier and Carlos, have joined the family business. Combining their father´s love of food and wine with their youthful energy and entrepreneurial spirit, El Carajo has begun reaching new levels of success. El Carajo has earned its place as one of the top dining locations in Miami because of our dedication to continually providing excellence in quality, service, and experience. We believe that things that make life worth living, such as wine, food and the pursuit of happiness, should be available to everyone. So what are you waiting for? Ven pa’l Carajo!
