Get ready for a new Mexican restaurant in the Auburn area.

Casa Azteca will open at 1624 Clark Street Road in the space previously occupied by Buffalo Wild Wings, The Citizen reports.

This will be the third location for partners Fernando and Jose Reyes.


They currently operate Casa Mezcal: Flavors of Mexico in Bath, as well as Old Mexico Restaurant & Cantina in Ithaca.

The duo said it’s all about opportunity. They told The Citizen that the lack of Mexican restaurants in the Finger Lakes region made them pursue the Auburn location.

It’s a large space, too. Once work is done, the restaurant will be able to host around 260 people. The partners expect it to take a few months to complete.

The building is part of the Fingerlakes Crossing shopping center.
