A few months ago, we reported the remodeling and expansion of Roosters Breakfast and Mimosas. Around that time, the owners were also working on a new concept called Roosters on the River at 1379 Garden Highway. The new Rooster was originally planned for December, although delays in permits and construction have slightly pushed the opening back.
A new digital sign went up in early November, but final permits were not approved until mid-late November. Construction has since begun, and the new restaurant is anticipated to open soon. The space, previously occupied by Pearl on the River, is a 5,500-square-foot space with a 1,000-square-foot deck. Construction documents showed the space required new equipment, plumbing, and upgraded lighting. The restaurant will also paint the exterior walls for a brighter, livelier look.
Wife-and-husband operators Teresa and Martin Gonzalez behind Roosters Breakfast and Mimosas plan to continue their Mexican-American fusion tradition at the new Roosters on the River. In addition to breakfast and lunch, the new concept will also serve dinner a few days through the week. The menu includes items like chilaquiles, pancakes, burgers and salads. And, of course, diners can expect delicious mimosas alongside beer and wine.
