Our team ventured to the vibrant and colorful
countryside of Mexico where we had the chance
to study authentic Mexican fare and libations. In
addition to their exquisite cuisine, we experienced first-hand the locals’ high level of service,
presentation and admirable hospitality. We left
Mexico inspired and more eager than ever to
bring these sentiments to Wild Rita’s.
While traveling in Mexico, interacting and dining
with locals, we came across a hand-made mosaic

jaguar. The locals referred to it as a “were-jaguar,” which translates to “man-jaguar.” The
sculpture is prominent in Mexican folklore and
represents a symbol of supreme being where the
human world meets the animal world, guiding a
person to live a life of adventure and happiness.

We encourage you to do as our Rita has done.
Leave behind an average existence to celebrate
the spirit of life, release the animal inside yourself
and leave your worries for another day. Today at
Wild Rita’s the “were-jaguar” hangs above our
wood-burning stove, keeping watch over us all.
