SITE AND OPERATIONAL PLANS APPROVED FOR IGUANA WANA MEXICAN GRILL AND TEQUILA BAR

On Monday, May 22, the Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission considered and approved site and operational plans for a new restaurant, Iguana Wana Mexican Grill and Tequila Bar. Pat and Alicia Patterson are proposing to renovate an existing building at 9080 76th Street, which was formerly occupied by Cardinal Stritch University. Pat was the original owner of Casa Bonita in Libertyville, Illinois.

Plans call for the 7,708 square foot building to house an up-scale, finely finished authentic Mexican atmosphere that will feature fresh, kitchen-cooked dining complimented by a tequila bar. A 1,920 square foot pergola-covered patio will be constructed on the north side of the building for occasional outdoor dining and reserved parties.

Ten part-time and 15 full-time employees are expected to work from the location. Upon completion, hours of operation are proposed to be from 11:00 a.m. until midnight Monday through Sunday, with supply deliveries accepted between 7:00 and 10:00 a.m. Iguana Wana is expected to open for business during the fall of 2017.
