We are SLOW FOOD, a place to relax and enjoy, good company, good wine and live music every night of the week
“We reserve the right to refuse service to grumpy people in a hurry”
What We Are About:
My inspiration and vision of The Turquoise, Cafe Bar Europa, is to recreate the feeling of the small, local bars of southern Europe.
Places where the people stop and gather, to hear the news, catch up with friends, relax and enjoy a coffee and a fine pastry or a small meal and a glass of wine.
They are found in the countries that border the Western Mediterranean Sea, that same sea which has been named since ancient times as the Turquoise Sea, a sea that meets and mingles all upon its shores with the real and mythical, joyous and jubilant, serious and serene.
Places where I saw more similarities than differences, and when seen as a whole, make up a region all its’ own. “The Lands of the Turquoise Sea”
~Basilio Ceravolo, owner and creator of Cafe Bar Europa
FROM THE SAN DIEGO READER
Now you can catch live music any night of the week, ranging from flamenco to blues, samba, rumba, Balkan folk, world, and jazz. The bar offers an extensive selection of wine and beer, which are best sampled at the 5 to 7 p.m. happy hour (Tuesday through Saturday) for $3 a drink to accompany a list of $3 tapas. Be aware that 17.5 percent gratuity is added to every bill. Any additional tips go to the band.
On a recent visit, tables were cleared away after dinner as the crowd danced to latin/reggae band Todo Mundo. An Uruguayan friend and I watched mystified as a woman with the features of a mythical bird jutted hips and gypsy hands in front of the band. My companion turned to me and said as a way of excusing himself, “She needs a dance partner, mijo.” He arose from our position at the bar and, just like in a scene from Dirty Dancing, the crowd split as he Swayzeed across the dance floor and engaged the avian zingara in a feverish salsa to “El Cuarto de Tula,” which caused the woman sitting next to me to squeal audibly with delight.

Just off the phone with my neighbor Basilio who owns these two restaurants. I have not visited yet. I admire this man very much. He is growing some of his own food. We are going to explore working more closely together. We have
adjoining properties. His chickens, or rooster, says hello early in the morning.
Looking at the website brings up memories of living at Harpos in Mission Beach, a restaurant where I would gather a group each night for special entertainments.
