Don Jose Mexican Restaurant, at 142 N. Main St., officially opens Friday, Nov. 6, according to Rafael Arciga, owner. Breakfast will be served starting at 7 a.m.

Customers will find a redecorated restaurant with a new menu and expanded hours.

Hours are 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays and 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

Arciga grew up in California in a family that operated five Mexican restaurants. He said that he is very excited about opening the restaurant in Bluffton. He and his wife, Venecia, will operate it.

“We will offer an authentic Mexican menu,” he said. “We will also be open for breakfasts and we will offer delivery services.”

The restaurant will have the same liquor permit as the previous owner. In addition, Mexican soft drinks will be on the menu.

Don Jose is named after Arciga’s father, who operated the restaurants in California. Arciga said that there are currently openings for servers and dishwashers.

A grand opening will take place later in the year.
