About

Esco Restaurant & Tapas blends Southern-inspired cooking with a shareable tapas format, serving seafood-forward small plates, brunch classics, and handcrafted cocktails in Castleberry Hill’s historic warehouse district. The space doubles as a live-music and nightlife venue after dinner, making it a popular stop both before Mercedes-Benz Stadium events and for a standalone night out. It’s one of the longer-standing sit-down dinner options in a neighborhood better known for bars and galleries.

Weekend brunch
Brunch classics are served alongside the regular tapas menu on weekends.
Late kitchen
Hours extend into the night, with the room shifting toward a lounge/live-music vibe later in the evening.
