A new Mexican restaurant will be opening on lower King Street possibly as soon as January.
Urbano 116 at 116 King St. will offer a "traditional Mexican food experience," according to the Urbano 116 website. "The Urbano team traveled to Mexico City and the Oaxaca region to study the foundation of Mexican cuisine. Authenticity and seasonal locally sourced ingredients are the foundation of our menu. Our kitchen is excited to bring fresh tortillas made in house daily from whole kernels of corn sourced directly from Oaxaca."
Urbano 116 is part of the Common Plate Hospitality Group, which also operates Mason Social, Augie’s Mussel House and a new Del Ray restaurant opening in 2019 called Catch on the Avenue.
Urbano 116 will have a full bar, restaurant seating and a take-out window on King Street. Keep an eye on the restaurant's website at www.urbano116.com for more details about the opening.
In the 400 block of King Street in Old Town, another Mexican restaurant is opening, also in January. Taco Bell Cantina, which will sell beer and wine alongside its menu of tacos and burritos, is hiring.
