Downtown Glassboro Scores Two New Businesses…

Downtown Glassboro scores two new businesses with a new restaurant experience and live-action adventure!  Joining the ranks of thriving businesses on Rowan Boulevard in Downtown Glassboro, New Jersey are two highly anticipated newcomers; The Mexican Mariachi Grill and Escape Room South Jersey.

George Cossabone, Sr. Glassboro Council President said “We are very excited to add these two, already successful business’ to our portfolio in Downtown Glassboro.  As Glassboro’s food, entertainment, shopping, and art scene is propelling the Downtown into the epicenter of South Jersey cool, amazing new places are opening monthly.”

Ricardo Ramos and his wife Viridiana, joined by Ricardo’s parents Ricardo Sr. and Eugenia, are the owners of the Mexican Mariachi Grill’s three current locations in Ewing, Hamilton Twp., and on the TCNJ Campus, and are well-seasoned entrepreneurs currently serving thousands of Mexican dishes every day using only fresh, quality ingredients, with an emphasis on authenticity.  With a family legacy of traditional Mexican cooking dating back several generations, together they bring not only their large and delightful variety of Mexican fare but their incredibly inviting personalities as well.  When you step into any location, you’re stepping into an extension of their home and they will do their very best to make you feel welcome.

Ricardo Ramos, Sr., is excited to build their fourth restaurant in Downtown Glassboro at 206 Rowan Boulevard, slated to open in summer of 2017, which will be the restauranteur’s largest at 3,200 sq. ft. and will include their first full bar which will serve up a refreshing assortment of Mexican cocktails and quality cervezas which will add another unique layer to their already amazing foods flavor profiles.

Ed Malandro, Glassboro Councilman, said “We have been anticipating these two new businesses and will facilitate them every step to opening day, and beyond.  Glassboro’s newest retail experience offerings are joining the culmination of the years of redevelopment and strategic planning to attract just the right mix of experiences in our retail offerings.  We are delivering on our promise to make Glassboro a destination for families for generations to come.”

After finishing an amazing meal, you never want the night to end, so why not add to the experience at Escape Room South Jersey, a 2700 sq. ft. place of mind challenging, fast-paced fun challenges designed to tempt even the most prolific puzzle solver and crime-drama addict.  You are placed inside a room and have 60 minutes to solve the task at hand using the clues and puzzles hidden throughout.  It’s a hectic, fun and challenging dash as you and up to nine other players work furiously to complete your objective before the time runs out.

This is the second location for the fast-growing business from Collingswood and will offer even more cerebral challenges than their first location.  Glassboro is primed for experiences like Escape Room South Jersey, that change the perception of what a night out on the town can be.

Derek Lindeman, one the Escape Room South Jersey’s partners along with fellow Rowan alumni, Anne Lindeman, Chris Borzell, Jake Matthews, and Jesse Hall said “We are beyond thrilled to bring our second Escape Room South Jersey to Downtown Glassboro.  With 4 brand new immersive rooms, our attraction on Rowan Blvd. is sure to entertain students, corporate parties and anyone looking to test their brain power with their friends and family.  As Rowan alumni we are so impressed with how far Glassboro has progressed in the 10 years since our graduation and we aim to be part of the great things that are to come in the very near future.”

These businesses are inside of over 200,000 sq. ft. of Downtown nirvana, a walkable downtown experience unlike any other with state-of-the-art new construction everywhere you look connected with a newly opened 1.75 acre Town Square which includes a Great Lawn, Stage Terrace, a Paver Plaza, an interactive Spray Fountain, two Pavilions, and a Sculpture Garden Arts Display.
