Nice?

A cherry location in Spanish Springs, yet there have been at least four or five different tries at making it work.

It was a micro brewery and restaurant back in 2004 when we arrived. That was the most golden opportunity to make a go of it and it tanked.

And many of us KNOW it is not the urban legend, high rent of TV!!!

So who or what is next.

The formula for success is so simple!!

We only ate there twice in 3 years because the first visit was mediocre and the second visit was worse.

I think we only ate there twice and both times they were busy so it was a little slow on food coming out. I had the spaghetti bolognese. It was good and the serving was so big I had to take half home which saves some cooking. We never had issues with the servers.

That's the nice thing about being a landowner/landlord.

Being of Italian descent, I ate there once and was not impressed with the quailty of their food and I am easy to please. I thought it was overpriced but fortunately, my friends paid the tab.

The Daily Sun said there were numerous people who were looking to put a business in that location.

Let's see what happens!

Bad food or service will keep me away. Villagers speak with their wallet. Such a great location with so many possible customers, just provide good food and service.

I just had to chime in. This is usually right in Bonnie's wheelhouse so I'm surprise she doesn't have her finger on the pulse of what's going in there next.

Actually you spelled my name right. It is Bonnie. When I first signed up for this forum, that name was taken so I just spelled it different.

A restaurant can and has made it there. **** poor management tears a place apart and who they hire.
