Fiesta Mexican Grill, Lino Lakes, MN., The Taco Shop, St Louis Park and Rochester, MN.

The story of Buenatarde began over a decade ago when owner Henry Avila was working at a Mexican restaurant in Cranberry, Pa., alongside Rebecca Mehalic and Brian Magaritz, both Pittsburgh natives. The three became close friends — Henry and Rebecca actually got married — and collectively they dreamed of opening their own Latin American restaurant, infused with Honduran flair inspired by Henry’s roots.

A local favorite dish is the Churrasco — a wooden platter filled with a variety of grilled meats and amazing sauces. It’s bold, flavorful, and perfect for sharing — just like the Buenatarde restaurant experience.
