Walking through the rathskeller beneath the main floor of Georgetown’s Lucha Cantina is like seeing a moment frozen in time — a moment before the pandemic and before the fire.
Condiments, napkins and small promotional flyers rest on each table, billiard balls sit as if they’d just been played, and — miraculously — the famous initials remain intact on the ceiling.
On May 15, the building that once housed local landmark Red Ram Restaurant & Saloon and current home of Lucha Cantina caught fire. While the official cause is undetermined for now, restaurant owners suspect it was an electrical issue.
