The Valencia corridor is hopping with new restaurant openings, what with St. Vincent coming alive any day now, Amber Dhara due later this month, and West of Pecos (550 Valencia Street), which the Scoop now says will open next Friday, May 12. As discussed earlier, West of Pecos is the southwestern-American restaurant from the MacNiven family who also own Woodhouse Fish Co. They’re doing a menu of housemade tortillas, roasted meats, green-chile burgers and the like, and there will be 20-ounce “schooners” available for beer. Also, there’ll be a full bar with tequila drinks and such. Tune in next week for more. [Scoop]
