After months of construction work, the new location of the historic El Rancho Hotel's restaurant is now open. It opened two days ago.

Larry Lucier and I went there for dinner after I picked up Larry from his physical therapist. We were impressed with the "new digs". It is more than double the size of the former location, which will be converted to retail space.

The new restaurant has windows, a bar and a beautiful stained glass and mirror.
The new restaurant is very nicely decorated with photos and posters of Hollywood stars of yesteryear who frequented the El Rancho Hotel. The new restaurant embraced the hotel's history with Hollywood, whereas the former one didn't. The old one was nice, but this is much nicer.

Additionally, we no longer need to use flashlights to read the menu as we had to do in the former location. Larry went with tacos (the Jill Biden Special?) and I had my usual chile rellenos. We both had a Margarita.

We really like the "new digs".
