Tapatios now serving Mexican dishes in Ottawa

Mexican restaurant also set to open in La Salle

EYES ON ENTERPRISE

Stephanie Jaquins

Tapatios opened this month at 3005 Columbus St. in Ottawa.

The menu includes traditional Mexican dishes and can be viewed on Tapatio’s Facebook page.

Dine in and carry out are available, as well as patio and bar seating. Hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. The lunch menu runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

The Tapatios location was built originally to house Starbucks. After the Starbucks closed, Furlong’s Sports Grill opened in 2019 at the location, then the Black Eyed Susan Sports Lounge.

A sign placed in front of the former Arby’s in La Salle in April also announced a second Tapatio’s location. No opening date has been announced.

Home decor store opens in Streator

A new furniture and home decor store opened this month at 409 E. Main St., Suite 1, in downtown Streator.

Cottage Lane Home Decor is open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. The business takes the storefront once held by Primrose Boutique. Go to https://www.facebook.com/cottagelane.streator for more information.

Boggio’s owners announce sale

Boggio’s Orchard and Produce owners Keith and Denise Boggio recently announced the sale of their Granville business.

In a Facebook post on the business’ page, Joe and Christine Migliorini were announced as the new owners of the orchard and produce farm at 12087 Highway 71.

Joe, the Boggio’s nephew, looks forward to keeping the operation in the Boggio family while continuing to provide the same great experience the family has worked to build, read the post.

The Migliorinis are Putnam County natives with a 1-year-old son, Geo, who already shows excitement when he comes to the orchard.

“They are appreciative of the immense support they have received so far in the new endeavor,” read the post. “They look forward to meeting you and are excited for the season ahead!”

After more than 30 years, the Boggios are looking forward to some well-deserved rest and time with family. They are grateful for the support and loyalty their customers have shown over the years.

Former St. Margaret’s doctor joins Arukah

Dr. Benjamin Shepherd has joined Arukah Institute of Healing, 1916 N. Main St., Princeton.

Shepherd will continue to provide psychiatric care to patients he served as part of St. Margaret’s Health and is accepting a limited number of new patients.

Call 815-872-2943 to schedule an appointment.

Arukah is not affiliated with SMH operations and SMH’s closing locations did not impact its services or operations. Arukah began a partnership with SMH in 2021 to offer a range of behavioral health services. The two organizations operated independently of each other as Arukah is proceeding with operations in its Princeton location.

Axe throwing available at Ottawa bar and grill

Axetreme Throwing is also located at Berta’s Tap, 616 Clinton St., Ottawa. Two axe lanes are set up in the outdoor portion of Berta’s.

Axetreme Throwing opened last year at 204 E. Walnut St., Oglesby. For more information, find Berta’s or Axetreme Throwing on Facebook.
