You are cordially invited to attend Tony P’s Cannabis Industry Networking Event, at Azul’s stunning rooftop.
Located along the Chicago River in the burgeoning Goose Island neighborhood, Azul is an upscale mariscos (seafood) restaurant serving an expansive menu of Latin-inspired fare. The concept combines the ethos of an authentic mariscos restaurant with modern hospitality practices and all the touches of a sophisticated, lively spot.
Celebrating the rich flavors and fresh ingredients of Latin culinary culture, Azul’s chef-driven menu is brimming with refined representations of classic mariscos cuisine. Created by Executive Chef Michael Hernandez, Azul offers a variety of grilled, baked, fried and raw proteins as well as ceviches, seafood cocktails and artfully arranged family-style platters.
An inventive beverage program includes craft cocktails, cervezas, wine and international spirits. A list of signature libations includes Margarita towers, locally-produced Pinches Miches Micheladas and seasonal and picturesque specialty cocktails. Large format drinks are available in pitchers and jarritos (clay pots) and bottle service is available
The crown jewel of Azul is undoubtedly its rooftop named Cielo… one of the largest open-air rooftops in Chicago. During the day, the rooftop offers a more relaxed vibe where guests can sip on a drink or two and hang out as they enjoy the view. After the sun goes down, the rooftop changes a bit, combining the exotic feel of a lounge with the relaxed feel that’s at the center of the Azul brand.
Come join us and network with over 200 Cannabis Industry Thought Leaders, Entrepreneurs, and Startup Founders….we look forward to meeting you there!
