DELTA ADVERTORIAL
A
new Mexican restau-
rant moved into Oakley’s
neighborhood, but owners Vina
and Phil Ferratt are not new to
the business. Combined, the two
bring over 25 years’ experience to
the table and are excited to bring
quality food and service to their
customers.
“We opened on March 1 and
are already enjoying repeat cus-
tomers!” said Vina Ferratt, who
says their primary goal is provid-
ing outstanding service.
Dishes already making the
fave-list with their customers are
the Camarones a la Diabla (shrimp
served with rice, beans, guacamole,
pico de gallo and tortillas), fish ta-
cos, birria (marinated goat
meat), enchiladas,
menudo, posole
and chile rellenos
– made with the
freshest ingredients daily.
“I had a customer come in
and warned me up front that
he’s very picky when it comes to
chile rellenos. Just watching him
eat it, made me nervous because
he ate it very quietly.When he was
done, he told me it was the most
amazing chile relleno he’d ever
had,” said Vina. “He even added a
nice comment onYelp about how
much he loved it.”

A big part of their customer
service is making sure children
get their lunches and dinners first.
“Our priority is the kids, so
we make sure their meals come
out first.When the kids are happy,
parents can relax and enjoy their
meals,” said Vina, whose four-
year-old daughter Ava, sometimes
answers the restaurant phone.
“She runs to get the phone first,
so if she answers it, don’t hang up,
you got the right number!”
Kids also get a free cup of ice
cream after dinner – just another
detail in making the dining expe-
rience great for the entire family.
Phil Ferratt, a retired, profes-
sional boxer, and manager at the
Elephant Bar Restaurant in Con-
cord, uses a personal philosophy
in running their restaurant.
“I tell all my employees to
come to work physically, emo-
tionally and mentally 100%,” he
said. “This is the best way to ap-
