Mariposa Cocina & Cocktails, the Mexican restaurant that opened in late November in the former Shiraz space, opted to temporarily close on January 30.
“As some of you may know, tomorrow will be our last dinner service at Mariposa for a month or so,” chef Robert Lomeli tells friends on Facebook on January 29. “We will be pausing service until restrictions are lifted to a more sustainable level. So if you’ve been wanting to come check out what we’ve worked so hard to put together and try some of the food that has been in my heart for so long, now is the time! But don’t worry, one thing I promise is that I’ll be back stronger than ever. If you know me, you know it’s no bullshit. I’ll be seeing you all soon!!”
