Fill in the Blank
Since I put down the mall plaza in my last post I'll make it up to them with this one. Just because I've experienced mostly bad service doesn't mean the move to open up the mall to the street isn't a great idea.
When the new plaza opened last last year all six slots were set to be filled with restaurants. Cosi, PF Changs, Kona Grill, Mitchell's & Capitol Grill have all since opened but Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que dropped out before construction was finished. Their abandoned bid is the yellow box wedged between Barnes & Noble& PF Changs. Anyone have an opinion as to what should fill the void? It's pretty safe to assume it will be chain. My vote is for the Fresh-Mex chain Chipolte. Sit down joints are pretty covered in the plaza, I think it needs another fast/casual destination like Cosi.

Chipotle, Jamba Juice..huge!
I gotta be anonymous to say this, but Chili's. Seriously. I love that place. And it would be really nice to have a sit-down place there that's not upscale and not expensive.
It's not downscale...it's just middle class. And I'm sick of us middle classers getting squeezed out for those trendy money joints!
famous Dave's is coming, but it is a slow crawl. The plans are all over the desk of the restaurant plan reviewer.
update - apparently the person who was opening Famous Dave's came in to tell the powers that be he is NOT going in! The plans were out because of some complication with the mall.
