Inside Bad Bunny’s ultra private post-Super Bowl party — and the strict rules enforced on staff

¡Buenísimo!

Bad Bunny’s post-Super Bowl party spot has been revealed — and it is world’s away from the bright lights of Levi’s Stadium just hours earlier.

The Puerto Rican star, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, shut down Spanish restaurant Macarena Palo Alto on Sunday night with around 50 friends and family.

The singer had given the site a week’s notice and booked it under a “mystery celebrity,” with staff shocked when he suddenly rocked up.

The event was so hush-hush bosses enforced a no phone policy on employees, and only revealed to the public it was Bad Bunny a week later.

Macarena posted on Instagram on Sunday: “Super Bowl Sunday at Macarena Palo Alto. We closed our doors for a private night — one we’ll never forget. El mayor honor. Gracias, Benito.”

Owners David Linares and Elizabeth Reviriego told reporters the request came in as a “mystery celebrity” buyout one week before.

To keep the “King of Latin Trap” from being swarmed, the restaurant enacted a strict no phone policy for staff, who were only told the A-lister would be dining there 15 minutes before his arrival.

Benito and his crew ate a special “Benito edition” menu, which included croquettes with Iberico ham, oxtail canelones, tuna tartare, paella, Dungeness crab and potato salad and heirloom tomato salad.

“He was very humble,” Linares told NBC Bay Area. “We were shocked – he was so, so normal. You couldn’t tell he was a superstar.”

Before heading out, Linares said Benito took the time to shake the hands of all the staff working at the restaurant that night.

“At that moment, he was the most important person in the world,” Linares told Telemundo. The restaurant opened in February 2025 and is coming up on its one-year anniversary.
