About Cortez Cortez aims to be the new two-story drinking destination that was previously home to a previously dimly lit restaurant. We have completely redone the establishment with whitewashed brick walls, funky lighting, and many coastal-inspired colors. We have named our tequila bar in DC after the Sea of Cortez along the eastern coast of the Mexican peninsula. We went all out to make sure that we get the artwork just right and flew in a very talented graffiti artist San Francisco to complete two murals. To make things a bit unique, the names of Team Cortez's family members and friends are inscribed into the artwork.
