CHARLOTTE — Restaurateur Manny Flores has snapped up a prime space in Plaza Midwood for Que Onda Tacos & Tequila.

Flores closed a deal yesterday to acquire the lease and assets of 1518 Central Ave. That 2,400-square-foot space was formerly home to Coltrane’s Char Grill, which closed this week after a five-year run.

“We’re finally going to be able to go into a market that we cherish a lot. We want to be part of the community,” Flores says.

He’s been anxious to crack into the Plaza Midwood market for some time, but previous deals have fallen through.

“This is one of those markets that’s really going to allow us to be part of the Charlotte scene,” Flores says.
