Federal Realty Investment Trust (NYSE:FRT) announces Plaza Oaxaca will open early next year at Rockville Town Square in Rockville, MD. The 4,500-square-foot restaurant will feature authentic Mexican fare and hand-crafted cocktails.
Plaza Oaxaca will be the first restaurant in Rockville for co-owner’s Cecilia Pastor and Maria Barragan who are originally from Oaxaca, Mexico. The duo plans to bring authentic Mexican cuisine to Rockville through their traditional food and, once safe to do so, by hosting live music and dance nights.
“One of the most frequent requests we receive is for a Mexican restaurant at Rockville Town Square,” said Dan Corwin of Federal Realty. “We are so excited to have found Maria and Cecilia and know that their approach to fresh Mexican cuisine will be a welcome addition to the greater Rockville community.”
Opening at 141 Gibbs Street in the Town Square, Plaza Oaxaca will be joining neighborhood favorites including La Canela, Spice Xing, Peter Chang, and soon to open HalfSmoke.
“The space is beautiful, and we love this neighborhood and the active community,” said Maria Barragan, co-owner of Plaza Oaxaca. “We look forward to showcasing our twist on Oaxaca, Mexico favorites such as molé and mexcál, and of course margaritas, at Plaza Oaxaca.”
The restaurant’s hours will be Monday - Saturday 11am-10pm, Sunday 10am-9pm.For more information, visit Plaza Oaxaca’s website here.
