Los Cabos, a Mexican Restaurant, held a ribbon-cutting Jan. 31 to celebrate the opening of its new, 46-plus seat space in downtown Milford.
The restaurant at 9 River Rd., owned by brother and sister Yessica Trujillo-Macary and her Jose Trujillo, expands on a take-out restaurant they opened nearby in 2015 called Los Cabos Snack & Go.
“We fought for the American dream and after three years of hard work, money and determination, we’re realizing that dream,” said Trujillo-Macary. “We live in Milford, we love Milford and want to be an example to young students and dreamers of the possibilities that are right here.”
Trujillo-Macary credits her mother, Maria Trujillo, and grandmother, Coco Liconas, for the salsa, mole sauce and tamales for their recipes.
“We will stay as authentic as possible and will stick to traditional Mexican dishes and our cultural roots,” she said.
