Experienced restaurateurs Oscar and his wife, Maru, have been running the popular “El Molino” restaurant in Waseca, Minnesota for nine years. Their desire to keep making Waseca residents and visitors happy about food options in town made them think seriously about how to help increase the choices in early 2017.
“We wanted to give people more options than just fast food,” says Maru, as answer to why start another restaurant? The successful Mexican food restaurant they own and run has options for a variety of tastes, but the couple felt after visiting a variety of restaurants on their own that maybe focusing on a more “American Taste” menu would be the way to go. So, they spent months compiling a list of items they would like, and felt would be a hit to their customers.
Oscar’s opened in the winter of 2017, and already Oscar and Maru are ready to start making changes, adding more options to the menu, and continuing to listen to their customers. They plan to gather customer testimonials to find out what people like, create contests to encourage patrons to take photos at the restaurant with their favorite dishes, and fortunately for the people of Waseca, they plan to stay and keep making great food everyone enjoys almost as much as a nice chat with either one of them when they have the time to pause. Oscar and Maru, along with their friendly staff, always enjoy time with their customers, who have welcomed their spin on tasty dishes for almost a decade.
