Last week, Station Casinos’ Boulder Station announced the opening of a new restaurant replacing its Guadalajara Mexican restaurant. The concept taking Guadalajara’s place? Leticia’s Cocina & Cantina, the beloved creation of Chef Leticia Mitchell.

It’s the second outpost for the restaurant, whose current home is at Santa Fe Station, where it offers “a Fresh and Authentic Mexican Cuisine for the real flavors of Mexico.”

“From signature dishes like fresh shrimp ceviche and El Molcajete, to homemade pure corn tortillas, Leticia’s offers a wide variety of Mexican classics and newfound favorites sure to whet any appetite,” says a press release announcing the opening. “Standouts include the award-winning Quesa Tacos and Leticia’s iconic Queso Fundido appetizer, as well as the Birria Quesa Tacos, named by Chef Leticia, Chilangos, made with tender beef birria and served with the birria consommé. ”

Opening at Boulder Station, it joins The Boiler, along with food-court favorites like Tacos El Pastor, Wingstop, Ice Cream La Flor de Michocán, and more.

“My goal is to always create a lasting impression of hospitality and impart a real taste of Mexico with each and every visitor,” Leticia Mitchell said in the press release. “We’re excited to satisfy cravings by introducing an expansive menu of authentic Mexican cuisine made daily with fresh produce, never canned or frozen, and traditional products for our Boulder Station guests.”

What Now reached out to Chef Leticia Mitchell on Monday to inquire about plans for the opening. Mitchell was not immediately available for comment.
