Dama

The group behind Scopa Italian Roots and Black Market Liquor Bar has transformed the former Pacific Banana Co. building in the fashion district into a lush tropical oasis. The sprawling venue offers a variety of spaces indoor and outdoor to enjoy Chef Antonia Lofaso’s island-hopping menu inspired by the Caribbean and Latin American cooking, as well as a festive classic meets tiki cocktail program by Pablo Moix. Three covered terraces of differing size offer varied degrees of seclusion, in addition to an al fresco patio and buyout options for larger parties.

The South Terrace, overlooking the patio and vibrant bar, seats 16, while the East terrace, which seats twenty, is the quietest option. The latter can be rented in conjunction with the lounge area, where guests can enjoy a cocktail and small plates before dinner.

The semi-private West Terrace overlooks the City Market South bocce ball court, with seating for 34.

The outdoor patio seats 83 across a combination of booths, banquettes, and tables, while a full buyout - including a dedicated cocktail hour at the three-sided bar - provides seating for 190.
