The 10,000-square-foot La Adelita restaurant in Ringgold is now open. Renovations had been underway since the fall.
“It’s named after a female war hero in Mexico,” said co-owner Miguel Casillas. “We want something authentic and unique. We will serve entrees like tequila flamed shrimp.”
Bar manager Jose Perez said what sets La Adelita apart from traditional Texas-style Mexican restaurants is the care staff puts into preparing the food, likening it to a handcrafted cocktail, which the restaurant also serves. Handcrafted margaritas include tamarindo, strawberry, mango and lime flavors.
