After $14 million and an incredible amount of perseverance, the historic Orpheum Theatre has been renovated for "adaptive reuse," restoring as much of its visible splendor as possible, while retrofitting it as a modern theatre capable of handling anything Broadway sends its way. And its marquee at Second Avenue and Adams Street again announces the names of first class productions, drawing thousands of people to a vibrant downtown venue.

The Zaguán Bistro opened its doors in December 2021 and it has been a wonderful journey for this family and all those who make up the Zaguán Bistro work team. El Zaguán. A Zaguán is a vestibule, it is not considered a room but it is used to receive visitors to the house or as a garden space. For Jesús and his wife Yashira, the Zaguán represents not only their childhood memories in their country but also the desire that whoever comes to their restaurant have a refreshing, relaxed stay, where they can enjoy simple food with a great Mexican touch. Let them eat like we eat at home!

Building a better world, one burrito at a time. When Chipotle (pronounced chi-POAT-lay) opened its first store in 1993, the idea was simple: demonstrate that food served fast didn’t have to be a “fast-food” experience. Today, Chipotle continues to offer a focused menu of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the tortilla) and salads made from fresh, high-quality raw ingredients, prepared using classic cooking methods and served in a distinctive atmosphere.
