After months of anticipation, The Mexicano is thrilled to announce its official grand reopening on Friday, January 31, 2025. Located at 4801 E Cactus Road, the restaurant—founded by Chef Joey Maggiore—will reveal a fresh look, an exciting new menu, and enhanced activations. Following a closure due to a kitchen fire last fall, the restaurant is ready to welcome guests back with dinner service and lunch starting in 2 weeks, along with daily happy hour specials and the return of energetic live entertainment the Valley favorite has been known for since its debut in 2021.

The reimagined space has undergone a dramatic transformation, designed by the creative eye of Chef Joey’s wife Cristina Maggiore. The ‘Mexicano 2.0’ features an open, airy feel with a stunning mix of immersive greenery, sleek furnishings, and a covered patio for al fresco dining. Guests will be drawn into the vibrant atmosphere that combines sophistication with the lively spirit of Mexican culture. Known for its interactive activations such as the famous build-your-own margarita bar, The Mexicano will be introducing a new experience to wow diners, a fresh tortilla-making station that will bring an authentic touch to the dining atmosphere.
