Marcela Arregui de McNeill was born and raised in Mexico City. In 1978 she opened Marcelita's Restaurant. Marcela shares her culinary heritage here in a casual, friendly setting. The essence of Mexican cooking is the skilled use of a wide variety of chile peppers in the sauces. These chiles…some fresh, some dried, some subtle, some bold…impart unique flavors to the dishes. In contrast to Tex-Mex cooking, Marcelita's focuses on flavors rather than hotness.

In 2008, Kevin (who had been a customer at Marcelita's for years) and his wife Beth became the new owners of the restaurant. They are hands-on operators and maintain only this single site so as to maintain consistency in preparation and service. Marcelita continues to oversee quality control in the kitchen and to develop new menu items. Kevin and Beth look forward to continuing the Marcelita's tradition and extend a warm welcome to all of our customers.
