While you may still be waiting to get into the “new” Casa Bonita, like me, but you won’t have to wait much longer to see the documentary about the iconic Denver restaurant getting it’s second chance.

The film,titled “¡Casa Bonita Mi Amor!”,  will play at the Alamo Drafthouse Sloan’s Lake (4255 W. Colfax Ave., Denver) on Sept. 6, 7, 8 and 12. It will then show at select theaters around the country starting Sept. 13.

The film follows “South Park” creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker as they purchase, and then spend two years reviving the Mexican restaurant.

The documentary debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival in June and will play at the Telluride Film Festival on Sunday. It will be available to stream on Paramount+ sometime this fall. Tickets to the local screenings are now on sale here.
