Susan Spicer is opening a restaurant in Lakeview in the former Lago location. I'm excited about it. Harrison Ave. is doing well with lots of places to eat, get coffee, etc. This should be great.
Spicer in Lakeview
Re: Spicer in Lakeview
That is good news.
I love that area and can't wait to go try it when she opens up. I actually had heard there might be something like this going to happen, so I drove down Harrison and took a pass by on Saturday morning. Didn't notice anything, but I did enjoy a brief visit to the coffee shop that was pretty busy.
What was your take on why Lago didn't make it? My wife and I enjoyed visiting the bar area and liked our one Friday lunch in the place.

I think Lago did good business, so I'm not sure if the restaurant failed or the owners just decided to call it quits. They had a tremendous Sunday brunch deal.
The idea of getting a wood fired pizza there is awesome. I might just forget Reginelli's.

Bacchi which was one of the many restaurants in the Lago location was my favorite, it was very good (as was Barataria). They (Bacchi) had one of those wood burning ovens and great non traditional pizza (I don't even like standard pizza usually).
(The progress on Harrison Ave is great, but they really need to do something with the old Landry's restaurant location (r.i.p.) and the building next to it. They have been empty for almost five years and on such a busy street).

I noticed that a new grocery store is planning to open in the old grocery location. This may just be the traffic draw that someone was waiting on to do something with the old Landry's spot.Suzy Wong wrote: (The progress on Harrison Ave is great, but they really need to do something with the old Landry's restaurant location (r.i.p.) and the building next to it.

I would have to think that building would need to be torn down.
