SanChez Bistro

The mezzanine level at SanChez Bistro – come up and enjoy 18 large canvas photography pieces and three multimedia presentations on the TV!

While the restaurant very much appreciates your patronage, I’d like to remind folks that do NOT have to be “dining” at SanChez to appreciate the 13 artists on display. It’s a venue like any other ArtPrize venue – come in and experience!
