On Thursdays, the restaurant also will feature Mexican food in the evening. On Fridays, Italian food will be served and steaks will be on Saturday’s menu.

A grand opening will be held 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Friday and 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday. Various specials will be offered in conjunction with the open house.
