Re: Rivera's Mexican Restaurant
So, correct me if I'm wrong, but rumors circulating are the owners are divorcing and so have to liquidate assets. Restaurant is closing the end of October, but could close sooner if they end up having staffing problems. Male owner *might* reopen elsewhere later on after he takes a hiatus. Does that about sum it up?

A few posts on Facebook confirm the closing, not much on reopening.ChadJK wrote: Fri Sep 30, 2022 11:02 am So, correct me if I'm wrong, but rumors circulating are the owners are divorcing and so have to liquidate assets.

Re: Rivera's Mexican Restaurant
Another longtime Omaha landmark restaurant to close in 2022. It’s been a tough year.
