It's all in the detail

Ok, so we missed out on Cinco de Mayo, we'll catch up. It's hopping at Matta's Grill & Cantina! There are so many different things going on, all the details are being addressed now. Let me start by saying that we finally have front doors and they are BEAUTIFUL! The tile work is nearing completion, those guys are knee deep into detail and they are very talented. Al from Tanner Materials is overseeing all the flooring, look them up if you are looking for some fabulous tile work!
Allen from Web Plastering has done the most beautiful job on the stucco, inside and out! We wanted the stucco on the inside to match what the old Matta's looked like inside and he has done exactly what we wished for. Call Allen at 602-376-3829.
Our painter Neil needs some recognition too, he is the man to call when you need a painter. I bugged him to get a website up to show off his great work, but says he's not ready for modern technology so call Neil at: 480-227-6852

We would like to also tell you that you can get a taste of Senor Rio tequila at one of their many tequila tastings, check their website for info on locations. (Their Anjeo is my favorite) Ask for Senor Rio when we open!

If you follow us on twitter then you get to see photos minutes after I take them with my phone. I have been instructed by the big boss, my husband Peter, to not put many more pictures up on here, sorry. We want you all to be surprised by the attention to detail that we've put into our new Matta's! He has been the mastermind behind the design of the dining room, kitchen & bar. I do take credit for coming up with the 2nd floor, restoring all of the old Matta's light fixtures and restoring all of the old decorative pieces & repainting them. I am working on some artistic collages of old photos of the history of the Matta's restaurants so you'll have something to look at in our new waiting area.
Almost forgot, we now have 2 signs up on Bass Pro Drive! Our building sign should be going up soon. Also, our patio walls went up today.Enjoy the pictures!

WE SURE WERE HOPING YOU WERE GOING TO HAVE AN OUTDOOR SEATING AREA.
WE SAT AT TOBY KEITHS AND WATCHED THE GUYS ON THE ROOF THE OTHER DAY.
IT LOOKS GREAT.
CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO OPEN.

So excited about the new Matta's and it looks like you'll be up and running the next time we head out that way! (We had to move to Tulsa right after the Matta's on Main St closed...) Nobody makes a chili relleno like Matta's!
