The story behind alma.
Alma Mexicana was conceptualized as a sister restaurant to The Porch, aiming to bring a contemporary Tex-Mex experience to Winston-Salem. The founders envisioned a space that blended the rich flavors of Mexican cuisine with a modern dining environment, contributing to the revitalization of the Bailey Power Plant area.
