Calendar's was successful there. It's a busy part of town in the medical district, so you would think the lunch crowd would be good. But for whatever reason, it hasn't worked.

And Frankie Marcellos which I thought was inconsistent, but had some good meals there. The location is cumbersome to get in and out of but a good restaurant can make it there.

The traffic is so bad it is almost impossible to get out of there and get going in the direction you want to go. Also, depending on where you are coming from, it is almost impossible to get into as well.

I'd go for lunch today if I could get a Plantation chicken salad.

30+ years ago, traffic was completely different, was Perkins even 4 lane back then?

It’s completely dead around all of that area after 5:30. It’s hard to make it on a lunch only crowd.

Its in a bad spot for getting in and out of. The list of places that have been there in recent memory were all pretty lackluster.

Putting sushi in that spot considering the company on the other corner was suspect at best. Laundering comes to mind like someone else said
