but where are the people gonna park?

the parking lot?

I ate at the one in Laf and of course the hype didn't quite live up in their food, but looking forward to trying it once it opens here.

A place that big will have approx 40 employees at each shift. The building is on an island. If there are 100 spots, then you'll only have around 60 for customers, not enough to have for the volume they're expecting.

Normal Outback location has about 90 parks and about the same number of employees per shift..should work. I still think the property is larger than you think, and they might have more parks than 100. I can find out by calling a friend if you are really interested.

Just hope they do well. Parking is such an issue with Mexican places cause of the volume they do, especially on an island like that.

I love the one in Lafayette, but it's what the "foodies"(I hate that fricking word) hate. TexMex. They do have some interesting menu items and I would advise people to get away from fajitas and queso and try some stuff that's outside the normal Messican box. I just said Mexican box

i like "tex mex" and authentic mexican food...i crave each of them differently..i'm glad to have another place probably because my husband and i eat "mexican" once a week...looks like i'll try it for lunch first..

Actually you are partially correct. I used to work there in operations. It was grown and started by Lafayette guys, but sold out last year to some other lafayette guys who are doomed to kill it. This will be the 4th concept that they will suffocate by switching out great ingredients in search of profits. If you ever went to Coyote Blues when the original owners owned it, you would hate it now. They were previous Outback franchisees, and the ONLY group ever asked to leave the company, at any cost, personally by the owners.
