Since its inception in 2009, Bistro Cacao, nestled in Capitol Hill, has been an esteemed establishment renowned for its contemporary French cuisine. In early 2020, the bistro strategically expanded its offerings by enhancing private dining and event capacities. The addition of an adjoining space—featuring both indoor and covered patio areas—catered to a broader clientele, thereby fostering the support of more loyal patrons and continuity with local vendors. Bistro Cacao is consistently voted as one of the most romantic restaurants in the area by locals, restaurant critics and influencers.

Overseeing the culinary realm is Chef William Perez, an integral part of the Bistro Cacao team since its start. Beginning as a dedicated sous chef under the tutelage of the original chef-owner, Kemal Deger, from 2009 to 2017, Chef Perez’s remarkable culinary prowess and adept kitchen management led to his well-deserved promotion to the position of Executive Chef.
