There's been a lot of news lately regarding Cedar Rapids' businesses opening or closing. Well, guess what? We've got more. Don't worry, this is good news surrounding a new business that is about to spice up downtown Cedar Rapids.

If you're not familiar with Mandarin Spice Asian Grill, you will be soon because KCRG reports that the restaurant is opening a new location downtown. Although, chances are you have already experienced their Asian-inspired menu since they have a location off of Twixt Town Road in Marion.

The restaurant will be located at 415 3rd Street SE. If you think that address sounds familiar, you're right! That's where Backpocket Brewing was located until it closed last summer. As you can see from the Facebook post, the building is going to provide a beautiful atmosphere to enjoy some delicious sushi and more.

There's no word yet on when exactly the new Mandarin Spice will be open, but we can't wait!

Oh, and if you're wondering about the 80's-themed bar that was supposed to be opening in this location, we have good news. It's still happening, just in a different location. Get all those details HERE.
