XUNTOS, together in Gallego, serves small plates of things we want you to try : from the farmer’s market to the traditional dishes of Galicia, Asturias, Catalunya & the Basque Country, as they’re eaten in Spain.

The wines follow the food : natural, unrefined, generous, showcasing Spain & California, along with some others we love & want to share with you.

This is the 2nd restaurant from Chef Cordero, who opened GASOLINA in Woodland Hills in 2015. She is a James Beard Fellow & co-founder of Regarding Her, a national nonprofit supporting women owners in hospitality.
