Cuernavaca’s Grill was founded in the early 2000s by Marcos and Maria Mendoza, first-generation Mexican immigrants that came to the US looking for the American Dream and a better future for their families. Marcos fell in love with culinary arts, managed a chain of restaurants, and later decided to open a place of his own, where he could bring a little bit of home to his community through traditional family recipes from his beloved México. Since 2005, Cuernavaca’s Grill has been a staple in the LA culinary scene, now run by Nayomie and Jackie, Marcos and María’s daughters.
