One of the owners of Guy Fieri favorite Taqueria Molcajetes (recently featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives) is taking over the former La Cantina in Rincon Valley. The large space, which features a full bar, is undergoing a brief rehab and should open sometime in mid-February as Los Molcajetes Bar and Grill. It’s a huge leap forward from the modest strip-mall spot, and we’re hoping they’ll have some of the same great Mexican food. Watch for the opening at 6599 Montecito Blvd #130 in Santa Rosa.

sure would love to see and support a local Mediterranean / Falafel / Shawarma restaurant, i love Mexican food but it’s not like we are lacking in that department around here, with the Falafel place in Cotati now closed it leaves only King Falafel in Sebastopol still open unless i am missing something? If so please do tell….
Good. Maybe this means the one on College Ave will be less crowded. Good luck to them.
