CONTACT INFORMATION

The core reason for the success of Paloma Blanca Mexican Cuisine isn’t our cuisine or atmosphere – it’s our family of good people. Many of us have been with the company since its inception, and yes, many of us are actually related to one another!

Each of us takes pride in providing each guest with an exceptional experience by endeavoring to live up to the sign you’ll find in the back of the house: Paloma Blanca practices the Golden Rule. We will always work to treat our guests as we would want to be treated...

We're working to better our community.

Nelly Mendoza Olsen's history with the restaurant is a great success story. Born and raised in Veracruz, Mexico, she joined Paloma Blanca Mexican Cuisine in 1998 as a hostess. Her management ability, work ethic, enthusiasm, and desire to keep improving Paloma Blanca's operations was evident early on. As a result, she continued to advance from position to position, and was finally promoted to Vice President and General Manager of Paloma Blanca in the Fall of 2003. She now presides over an operation that employs more than 75 employees and serves in excess of 3,500 meals a week. Additionally, Nelly was integral in co-creating Vela at Paloma Blanca, Paloma's second bar and third private room located across the patio.
