Open daily from noon for lunch until late night, El Padrino also hosts special events including cognac tastings, new product launches, private receptions, and corporate dinners.

“We opened our doors shortly before the Covid-19 pandemic which was one of the most challenging periods in recent history, especially for the hospitality industry. Thankfully we emerged through this time and have developed a very close knit community of patrons who truly appreciate and reflect our vision of a luxury experience in dining and entertainment,” shares Paulo Borgi, Manager at El Padrino.

Here are the top 5 reasons why El Padrino has become one of Ghana’s top restaurants and a favorite of celebs and high profile personalities.
