Frontera is taking the place of Plaza Azteca at 170 Slater St. In May, Plaza Azteca announced it was moving to the Shoppes at Buckland Hills mall — at the former Bertucci's — and renaming itself Toro Azteca.

The staff went with the Azteca move and jobs are being added at the new place by the new restaurant — Frontera. A sign bills the menu as "fresh Mex." Frontera also has locations in Chicopee and Springfield in Massachusetts.

Last week, officials at Frontera said an opening announcement was coming soon.

"Which Tacos will you try first? In Manchester, we are excited to announce we are very close to opening, watch out for the opening date announcement that is coming soon ... " officials said in a social media post.
