Giovanni’s. It was at Kenilworth and Highland. Hookers in the underground bar did it in.

Yep, probably Giovanni's. He owned Mama Brava's in Cortana Mall and Pasta Garden on Sherwood Forest where that Canes is.
They had a manager that was shady AF (I have a couple of weird stories involving him) but I dont know if the owner was really like that. The owner's son was really talented at music from what I remember.

I remember the one you are talking about under the water tower by the bridge when you could still drive over it. I feel old that I know all these other mentions are more recent things.

I'm trying to remember the history of that strip. There was a shoes repair place.. Video Village(that rented Faces of Death to us middle schoolers), and Giovannis. I think they all shut down and Vincent's came in, expanded and another place Jack Sprats( really unhinged owner) opened on the corner. Vincent's went through a a few names I I think..My sister got propositioned to work for him

And I think the pet store next door supplied some food. Old Noah's boat was right next to it right????

Noah’s, right next to bailey’s chicken fingers. I used to have a friend that worked there. We would show up at 2 am from tiger land and make all the chicken fingers we wanted for ourselves.
I may know you. Had a friend that did this as well.

Was Woodrows the place with a huge seafood platter named the Rex. I want to say behind fast track on Lee and highland, mid-late 80’s. Also, ate there a bunch as a little kid.

I remember two places... around that area we ate The Catfish Shack and Woodros. Catfish Shack had a sit down Spy Hunter game in the front that I thought was the greatest thing ever.

Wasn’t Kiva’s there before Portabello’s?
