One never knows where a connection could lead.
For instance, Rodrick Grice and Alex Montoya met several years ago when Montoya was doing some work on Grice’s house. Now the pair are partners in a new restaurant in Bartlett.
Their Santa Ana Mexican Bar & Grill opened at 6220 Stage Road earlier this month.
