Uno Mas Cerveza -Corona at Puerto Azul Restaurant


I love the Corona Beer sign at the Puerto Azul Restaurant on West Capitol Avenue. It is also rumored that I usually enjoy a couple of them with the great seafood cocktails that Vince makes!

Trivia: The Puerto Azul (now closed) was located in the same building that at one time housed the infamous "Yolo Club" on West Capitol Avenue (endearingly known as "The Strip" in the old days). They served the greatest BBQ ribs in town. There was a rotisserie in the front window to show off the delicious ribs and chicken cooking, and there was a rotating circular bar in the center of the restaurant. My dad used to take us there for dinner when we were kids, then would disappear down the street for a quick one at the Hawaiian Hut to visit the Stathos Brothers who owned that Hut.
The above photo was shot by Tom Spaulding. Too bad the old Yolo Club sign is now
gone due to the new sign ordinance in West Sacramento.
