This summer at R House Wynwood, make sure to order the refreshing La Pina Loca ($100), a frozen pina colada served in a whole pineapple with sparklers, flamingo straws, tiki umbrellas, and five shots of your choice. This cocktail is presented to the table on a bamboo tray. Perfect for sharing, the La Pina Loca is available for only those “in the know” as this extravagant cocktail is a secret item that isn’t mentioned on R House’s menu. Offered during brunch, lunch, or dinner service, you can pre-order the Pina Loca on the R House website before your visit.
R House is located at 2727 NW 2nd Avenue in Wynwood and is open Wednesday through Thursday from 4 PM to 10 PM, Friday from 4 PM to 12 AM, Saturday from 11:30 AM to 12 AM, and Sunday from 11:30 AM to 6 PM.
