New Mexican restaurant opening in former Conway area fast-food chain spot
A new Mexican restaurant is set to open in the Conway area, locating in a former fast-food chain building.
Loca Luna is being built in a former Hardee’s at 1250 S.C. 544, near the Coastal Carolina University campus. The building also was an Adobi Flats Burrito Grill before being sold to SHF Properties LLC in October 2024, according to online land records.
A message previously left for the owner was not returned. A message to what appears to be a sister restaurant could not be left.
It’s not known when the new restaurant will open and workers at the site on Tuesday morning did not know.
The property is registered under the name Salvador Villalpando and Loca Luna 544 Inc., according to Horry County land records.
A person answering the phone at Luna Mexican Bar and Grill in Murrells Inlet said the restaurant also was owned by Villalpando but was unable to provide information about the new location.
The Murrells Inlet restaurant provides upscale dining that honors Mexican flavors and traditions, according to its website.
