Project overview
Lumbre Oculta is a responsive, editorial restaurant website concept for a contemporary Mexican dining room in Brighton. It gives diners a clear route from discovery to menu exploration, dish details, agave storytelling, private dining enquiries, location planning, and a polished reservation confirmation flow.
Portfolio note: This is a frontend restaurant concept. Addresses, contact details, menu pricing, availability, booking results, and people shown in the content are illustrative and are not claims about an operating restaurant.
