As we mentioned earlier this week, Tacuba—whose full name is Tacuba Cantina Mexicana—is getting closer to opening. Our contact over there told us a firm date: Monday, September 15 UPDATE, 9/4: it’s going to be Tuesday, September 16. That is very appropriate because that is Mexican Independence Day. We expect it will be pretty festive that night!
I took a look at their website, which is much more colorful than when we originally found it—to be fair, there was nothing on there when we first came across it!

And it turns out they have set up their social media channels with Facebook and Instagram; I couldn’t track down a twitter account, so perhaps they will fold it into Chef Julian Medina twitter handle. Particularly interesting is a glimpse at the menu!
Here are a couple shots of the interior, which still looks a lot like it did with 5 Napkin was in there.
So there you have it. We are very much looking forward to this and can’t wait to check it out!
