"A go-to Magazine Street spot for margaritas, happy hour, and Mexican nosh, Arana Taqueria y Cantina closed without prior notice over the weekend (February 17), as announced in a video posted by chef Richard Papier. While maybe not the best Mexican in town, the central location and budget-friendly deals made it pretty popular, making the closure somewhat surprising. According to NOLA.com, owners sold the space to Louisiana chain El Paso Mexican Grill. Following light renovations, El Paso is expected to open in March." - Clair Lorell
