Editorial Review for Pasion – by J.P. Anderson
In Short
Pasion's two earth-toned dining rooms pulse with energy and tropical details including a tile floor and fabric-draped ceilings. Salsa music and the hum of the open kitchen surround a crowd of corporate types and friends out for a special night. Chef Guillermo Pernot is known for his seviches. His specialty entrees include sweet potatoes with plantain and wasabi pea-crusted salmon. Finish with the signature traditional Cuban flan doused in caramel, topped with a phyllo-dough crust.

Insider Tips
ParkingPark in the lot across the street, and the restaurant will validate.
Where To SitWatch Pernot and staff in action by reserving a stool fronting the open kitchen. Last-minute seats are more readily available here, but the arrangement works best for solo diners or couples.
