French, German and Italian inspired, Patria has wood floors, soft colors on the walls and carefully

Patria is the brainchild of Paolo Kautz, founder and former chef at Cafe Rustica, and his business partner, Gloria Magdirila, whose family has owned the building since the 1960s. With a full bar, a wine list dominated by local reds, Kautz’ deft hand in the kitchen and Magdirila’s welcoming presence in the front, Patria is the go-to place in Salinas.
