What Kind of Food is Served at the New Restaurant in Tyler?

With a name like Mojo’s Cantina and Grill you know that tacos will be on the menu but according to their Facebook page they will also feature steaks, seafood, and specialty burgers. The theme is a mix of flavors, warm hospitality, and culinary creativity.

While I haven’t had a chance to stop by yet, I know some friends that stopped by already and spoke with the owner and got some great information about the new restaurant. They are starting with beer and wine but are just waiting for permits to allow a full bar for all customers.
