A popular Sartell Mexican restaurant is changing course on a major rebrand after listening to feedback from its customers.

Anejo's Mexican Restaurant on Pine Cone Road announced its last day on May 31st after 12 years in business. The restaurant's intention was to close and reopen with a 'much different concept and lot of new faces.' On Facebook, ownership said the new name would be 'Los Sanchez.'

We listened. We reflected. We made our decision.
Many of you heard that we were planning a big change for AÑEJOS.
Over the past few months, we explored new ideas and imagined a different future. But after listening to our guests, our family, and our own hearts, we realized something...
AÑEJOS is more than a name.
It's where birthdays have been celebrated, families have gathered, friendships have grown, and memories have been created for years.
So we made our decision.
AÑEJOS is here to stay.
Now we're bringing you an even better experience with a beautifully refreshed restaurant, exciting new seafood dishes, handcrafted cocktails, live music on weekends, and unforgettable celebrations.
The name stays. The memories stay. The experience gets even better.✨ Grand Reopening Coming Soon!
The post was met with almost unanimous praise for the decision, specifically for the restaurant taking the time to hear out its customers to make their decision.
The official 'grand reopening date' is still to be determined.
