Copita is celeb chef Joanne Weir’s first Silicon Valley venture
Chef Joanne Weir talks with attendees during a Nov. 18, 2021, event announcing her upcoming two-story Copita restaurant in Willow Glen. Weir and partner-owners Larry and Michael Mindel are opening the restaurant and rooftop bar at Lincoln Avenue and Willow Street in San Jose. Finally, there’s an answer. Copita, the highly anticipated rooftop restaurant and tequila bar from celebrity chef Joanne Weir — her first in Silicon Valley — will start serving at 5 p.m, Monday, Oct. 30.
For the first few weeks, it will be first come, first served. Dinner will be served daily, 5 to 9 p.m. Sunday-Thursday, 5 to 10 p.m. Friday-Saturday. Reservations and extended hours are coming later. Joining Weir and business partner Michael Mindel in this venture — officially Copita Tequileria y Comida — is executive chef Azari Cuenca-Maitret, a culinary star from Mexico City.
“Their passion for restaurants and Willow Glen made me be in love with the project almost right away,” Cuenca said in aA fourth-generation chef, Weir cooked at the legendary Chez Panisse before launching her publishing and television career. A tequila guidebook she wrote in 2009 became the inspiration for the original Copita in Sausalito, which marries seasonal California ingredients with regional Mexican recipes. She opened that award-winning cantina in 2012.
