The new Mexican restaurant being built in Saltillo has applied for a liquor license (it's been running legal notices in the Daily Journal, the last on Saturday), and barring any objections, it should be open in a few weeks.
The restaurant, Mi Toro Bravo, is next to Emi Lou's in the Center City Market development. I poked my head in to see what was going on, and the interior was being finished out. Still plenty of work to do, but it shouldn't be too long.
It will be Saltillo's second Mexican restaurant – the other one is Los Campadres, located across Highway 145.
Which means Saltillo has about two dozen few Mexican restaurants than Tupelo.
Thanks for the question. We're certainly interested in running Deals of the Day when businesses want to do it and we talk with them to see if it helps them. You're right it is a great way to get word out about a business, especially a new one. Anyone interested in a Deal of the Day should contact us at 678-1585.
Thanks,

For a while, DJ had Groupon-type deals on the home page. I remember signing up for a Romie's deal and maybe another one too. Was that feature just a limited-time thing? Is it likely to come back?
