Saw a friend of mine on Facebook tagged in the Friends' "Closing Down Party". One of the waitresses wrote that she was laid off because of the closing.

They declared bankruptcy last summer.

Need to start completely over with new chefs.

Well you can either have bad food or expensive food. You can't have both.
I was just shocked they thought building that monstrosity was a good idea.

Service and lack of organization was the biggest issue. Food was average but never viewed it as place to get great food, but to go fairly cheap food and drink. Problem is you can't get served with any competence.

Went for the first time about 6 months ago. 2.5 hour wait. The service was a mess too.

On the other hand that little house at the and of the street near Morton's is a diamond in the rough. Can't think of the name. Excellent fresh fish.

A coworker and I were going to eat lunch there a couple weeks ago. There were no cars in the parking lot and it looked closed even though the sign said open. I didn't want to be the only customers there so we went somewhere else.

It did a couple weeks ago in parish auction, 2.5 M or so iirc.

Pretty decent boat parking IF everyone backs in
There's the key. IF. Lotta parallel floaters every time I passed by.
Been couple times. Service sucked and so did the food. It's one hell of a location and would have great atmosphere if they could make a decient meal.

When owners changed after they rebuilt, the food and service went to shite. I'm normally not one to bitch about food bc I'll eat at anything from Chilis to Del Porto, but Friends food was not good. They should have fired the cook long ago in attempts to survive

Maybe that's What they were talking about. Just heard something about the sale.
Only 5.5 mil short of that 8 mil building.

Too many police writing tickets and chasing the DUI dollars.
