From Nico’s Desk: 5/26
May 26, 2020
Thank you to Governor Lujan Grisham for allowing restaurants with patios to open up for limited service before the announced date of Monday, June 1st. A little more than 1 day’s notice would have been helpful, but this is definitely a step in the right direction.
In preparing to staff the restaurant, have much needed food supplies delivered, prepping all the menu items that we 86’d to create the limited to-go and delivery menu, and of course cleaning and sanitizing the inside and outside of the restaurant, the management team and I here at Turtle Mountain were operating on the assumption that we could not open up until June 1st. We are not ready just yet to open up for you, our generous and supportive patrons, as much as we have been looking forward to this for every one of the 69 days that dine-in business has been prohibited to us. We need a few more days to fully prepare the staff and the building for this milestone day.
We will re-open at 11 am on Monday, June 1st, ready to begin the long road back to “normalcy”, wherever that may take us. See you on Monday!
Nico Ortiz, Proprietor.
