Apparently there’s one in Granbury that appears to be doing quite well. Didn’t realize the vegan market down there was so strong.
Used to live over there and if I remember correctly when the land was originally given to the city it could only be used for a park. Forever set in stone. Nothing can be built on it. I have been clamoring for a restaurant on it for 20 years.
Was there in '85... don't order a tequila sunrise, they just put pineapple in a long island iced tea. Got the t-shirt and all but then I had kids at it got used as an emergency towel.
Apparently you never frequented the Qui Lounge and had quiet conversations in that park with residents of Colby, et al.
I ate there a lot in college. It was walking distance from my apartment. It’s where I developed the concept of saving the crusts of your pizza for later. It’s like getting free breadsticks. Patent pending.
Mr. Gatti’s was THE pizza spot in my hood growing up. Every Sunday after church. Every little league team party. Also the most common off campus lunch spot senior year. I miss it an awful lot.
Never struck me as exactly safe. Re Oui, was more of a pub guy myself. Polaroids are still on the wall.
There was one on north Tarrant in NRH not terribly far from us, but it closed about a year ago. It’s ok, though. We have Bosses, so all is well.
