Default JJ Fin's Dockside Closed

I just read that JJ Fin's Dockside was sold to new owners. We enjoyed eating there. Too bad.

Skip, are they temporarily closed or permanently? Maybe the new owners want to refurbish the place and then reopen. I'm hopin'!!
Hey, I know you have the inside scoop on restaurants, do you know when the new owners of Hacienda will be taking over??
Thanks in advance, Kath

The food wasn't that bad for what it is. We took our company there for dinner and had no complaints. ( Back in April of this year)

Where was Fin's Dockside located? The name does not ring a bell.

I believe it was in Travaris. I went by last Monday and they had a new sign up but don't remember the name. There were several workers around there also.

I remember Dead River Vics. I passed the area the other day and saw that Dead River Vics wasn't there anymore.

I went there once. It was alway too far and too little for me to make a return visit.

Thanks.
