Mount Pleasant

LUCHA, Sandwiches and more, hoping to open in former Dos Gringos space later this month!!


3116 Mount Pleasant Street, NW

Back in April we broke the news that Dos Gringos would be closing and La Lucha, “sandwiches & more” would be coming into the legendary space in Mount Pleasant. I’m told they are hoping for a “late may opening!”

“🐾 Mt. Pleasant, we need your help! 🐾

As we bring new life to the historic Dos Gringos Cafe space at 3116 Mt Pleasant St NW, we’re turning it into something fun, bold, and community-driven: Lucha Sandwiches & More 🌮🥪

and what’s a neighborhood spot without its locals… including the four-legged ones? Send us photos of your pets to be featured inside the restaurant! Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, if they’re part of your family, we want them on our walls.”

“Putting a face to the name, I’m Chad. Alex (former owner of dos gringos) is a dear friend of mine. Here’s a photo of us on her last day slanging food at dos gringos. Underneath her mask is a vibrant smile that was dedicated to the community of Mount pleasant. I’m honored she decided to pass me the reigns and I hope to make her proud. Spoiler alert; she will be working with us at LUCHA, so you’ll still get to see her! Fingers crossed we will be stuffing faces with sandwiches on house made hoagies in a few weeks. Stay tuned!
