Restaurant operators Pat and Alicia Patterson are planning to renovate the existing 7,708 square foot building located in a strip mall just off Highway 50, for the restaurant.

Pat Patterson was the original owner of Casa Bonita in Libertyville, Illinois.

Plans submitted to the village for Iguana Wana call for an upscale restaurant with finely- finished, authentic Mexican food. A  1,920-square-foot pergola-covered patio will be constructed on the north side of the building for outdoor dining and parties.
