Sure, everyone knows us for our sushi rolls that changed the game. But The Escobar Kitchen is so much more than that. We’re here to take you on a full Latin-Asian fusion journey — from the first appetizer to the perfect drink pairing that completes the experience.
If you think you’ve seen everything we can do, think again.
Today, we’re sharing some of our favorite dishes and drinks beyond the sushi bar — so you can plan your next visit with even more flavor in mind.

🔥 1️⃣ Appetizers That Hit Different
We take pride in starting things off strong. Our appetizers aren’t an afterthought — they set the stage for the entire meal.
We believe the best meals don’t start with a roll — they start with anticipation. Our appetizers aren’t an afterthought. They’re a promise of the bold fusion flavors to come.
✨ General TSO Ribs Tender pork ribs glazed in our house General Tso sauce. Sweet, sticky, and spiced to perfection — a Latin-Asian twist on a classic.
✨ Krab Sticks Tempura-fried kanikama topped with spicy mayo and soy sauce for that irresistible crunch-meets-creamy finish.
✨ Nigiri & Sashimi Appetizers Choose Tuna or Salmon — 4 or 6 pieces. Premium cuts served with respect for tradition and freshness.
✨ Shrimp Tempura Appetizer Crispy fried shrimp with spicy mayo and eel sauce on top. Classic, comforting, and always hits the spot.
✨ Teriyaki Wings Crispy fried wings tossed in our sweet and spicy General Tao-inspired sauce. Juicy, bold, and absolutely shareable.
✨ Crazy Crab Bites Avocado, cream cheese, and crab rolled with white rice, tempura-fried and topped with guava sauce, extra crabmeat, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. Every bite is a flavor bomb.
✨ Canoas A plant-based egg roll wrap stuffed with cream cheese, green onion, and crab mix. Light, creamy, and so satisfying.
✨ Gyozas (Chicken or Pork) Pan-seared dumplings delicately crisped and drizzled with our house General Tso glaze. Every bite blends bold Latin-Asian flavors.
✨ Stuffed Avocado Fresh avocado halves loaded with our signature crab mix and drizzled with sauces. Creamy, cool, and fusion at its best.
Whether you’re in for a quick bite at Happy Hour or looking to share a few plates with friends, our appetizers set the vibe right from the start.
