The old place didn't have an identity. Were they a restaurant or did they want to be a club? Same type issues I have with Pelican House. I didn't enjoy the food at all at LBT and it was weird and uncomfortable in there when the family and I went for dinner.


Exactly this.

And FT is right: If the food is really good at Spice, I hate to see it not do well. I just think the place is climbing an uphill battle because they kept the same style of food that LBT had, the same decor and vibe that LBT had, and they have made zero effort to advertise or separate themselves from what was already there. Basically, it seems like the same place with a new name.

City Pork is an excellent example of branding done right. With the right PR, providing their food is good, Spice could be a success.

Music to a restaurant owner's ears. Trust me, they know their food is good. They believe, like you, that all they need to do is get the word out. Of course, that's what all restaurants with a low customer count think. And of course, sometimes they are correct...sometimes.
