El Loro Closes As Another Mexican Restaurant In Waite Park Vanishes
WAITE PARK (WJON News) -- A second Mexican restaurant in the St. Cloud area has closed its doors. El Loro Mexican Restaurant, located at 1001 Division Street in Waite Park, has closed. There is a new sign on the building that says Los Cabos Mexican Grill coming soon. However, Waite Park Planning Director Jon Noerenberg says the city was aware of a name change at El Loro via a sign permit request, but that Frontera LLC was recently approved to open a cannabis dispensary at that location.
