"A forthcoming Arts District homage to Mexican fast-casual dining from chef Leticia Mitchell, occupying a 1,842-square-foot space at 807 S. Main Street beneath an iconic vintage neon sign that has advertised Mexican food on the property since 1950. The concept will expand the chef’s full-service brand into a more casual format, featuring a walk-up counter inside a 600-square-foot dining room, seating for 49 indoors and a proposed seasonally operated patio for 19 out front. Planned offerings include street tacos, tortas, and Mexican corn, with hopes of securing a tavern-limited license to serve margaritas, micheladas, sangria, tequila, and beer. The interior is expected to be eclectic and warm, with dark woods, vibrant colors, teal accents, tapestries, folk art, and nods to the Mexican card game Loteria; an opening date has not yet been announced." - Bradley Martin
