Four Sparrows Mahjong is now open at 328 E. Plaza Real in Mizner Park, converting a family tradition into a social club and boutique in Boca Raton. The operator's Instagram announced the opening, attributing the concept to four sisters who built it around games their mother, Arlene Oyola, hosted at her kitchen table.
The club runs on four tracks: beginner and intermediate lessons for new players, daily open play, private event rentals, and an in-house boutique carrying mahjong sets and accessories. The format covers multiple entry points — structured instruction for those new to the game, regular open play for experienced players, and rentable private sessions for groups.
The family-origin story is what the operators have led with publicly from the start. The Oyola name gives the concept a personal lineage, positioning Four Sparrows as a founder-led independent rather than a franchised or investment-backed format — a distinction that carries weight in Mizner Park's specialty retail mix.
No prior tenant at the Mizner Park address or square footage has been disclosed in available source material. The four sisters have not been publicly identified by name beyond their relationship to Arlene Oyola.
Mizner Park has been a consistent draw for independent specialty retail and hospitality in Boca Raton. The 328 E. Plaza Real address places Four Sparrows at street level within the mixed-use development, accessible to destination shoppers and the surrounding residential base alike.
With the location confirmed open per the operator's Instagram, the near-term signal is whether the private events program builds enough repeat business to sustain the broader concept. The combination of lessons, open play, and retail under one roof gives Four Sparrows more revenue channels than a single-format club — and more reasons for players to return.
