Though reservations via Open Table are not available until July 21 (at the time of this post), the spot should be available for walk-ups starting Monday. We got to check out the still in-progress space a few days ago, and things seem to be shaping up nicely for the big day! Though the windows of one side were still covered…

… we could see some of the features such as the show kitchen and the bottles on the “Wall of Fame” (albeit with a bit of sun glare 😉 ) in the front room from the other side.

We could get just a small peek inside the back room and bar.

Even the back patio looks almost ready to go!
Patio seating at Frontera Cocina
We don’t know yet if the patio is for sit-down guests only, or if guests purchasing their orders from the walkup window will be able to sit here as well… but we’re looking forward to finding out!
Walk-up Window
Speaking of the walkup window, the menu is already up!

I am much more concerned about the use of red onions than cage free eggs! Our family is anti red onion because of allergies. This is a trend I keep hoping will end! I am so tired of seeing this ingredient on menus but truly scared when I find it not mentioned then slipped into food.
I love the walk up window option. I live local and would love a taste without the sit down price. This reminds me of the Morimoto street food counter.
