| At the new Las Brassa Grill Mexican Restaurant, Wellsville’s newest and only Mexican restaurant, from left, Paulino Andres Vasquez, owner Elioenai Fuentes, Jessica Quijano and Ines Fuentes are ready to serve you. |
Fuentes says he likes Wellsville and was surprised that
there was no Mexican restaurant here, explaining that three years ago he tried
to bring the business here but couldn’t find an appropriate venue. Earlier this
year, he was contacted by relator Vickie Middaugh that a site was opening up
and he jumped at it. The “family” business also has facilities in Springville,
near Jamestown and in East Aurora.
Starting as a dish washer in a Mexican restaurant over 20
years ago, Fuentes learned the business. He has lived in the United States for
34 years, mostly in North Carolina.
While there is no menu available online (people have to go
to the restaurant and pick one up) Las Brasas offers a wide variety of
authentic Mexican dishes. The menu includes salads, appetizers, a lunch and
dinner menu and a menu for kids. You can also order a la carta. With most
dishes you get your choice of beef, pork or chicken. They also offer seafood,
steak, veggie plates and burgers, chicken fingers and corn dogs that you can
get with or without fries. Of course,
they offer fajitas, tacos, quesadillas, burritos and enchiladas served up with
or without rice and beans.
At this time, it takes anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour to
get your food. Business is most brisk around 5 and 6 p.m.
