The co-owner of Garcia's, Andrew Garcia, said that the article surprised him, but he's honored for who and what the acknowledgment represents.

"It's an honor for sure. And to the people who made it, cause it's not just me, it's all the crew and everybody. Waitresses and everybody and the customers you know, if it wasn't for them, we wouldn't be here.
