I can only see this going one of two ways:
Someone like Sidney Torres or the Motwani's buy it for the name and keep it operating under that name and similar but cut costs...
Or some hipsters that operate a place like Turkey and the Wolf or something buy it for location and put a completely new concept in there.

If that happens, they would likely lose much of the current customer base that has kept that place running for decades.
People that go to Liuzza's are looking for their "comfort food" that they've been eating for a long time and would likely not welcome much change in the menu.

Why can’t someone just run it mostly the way it was? They had great po’boys that weren’t overpriced in a nostalgic setting. They also had some solid Italian plate lunches and those big frosted beer mugs. If I owned the place, all I would do is maybe try to add more taps to throw a couple good local beers next to the bmc, and that’s it. Liuzza’s is one of many restaurants struggling 99% due to Covid. It wasn’t a tourist spot, it’s a local joint and a cop hangout. They don’t need to be serving french polynesian fusion cuisine through a deconstructed quiche on burlap or whatever the hipster foodies are doing these days. They don’t need to be a fancy white tablecloth Italian creole restaurant where the entrees are $30-50 a plate either. F$&k Latoya and short-sighted landlords for destroying great neighborhood haunts like this one. New Orleans is a lesser city without Liuzza’s. I really wish that I could buy it for me and my friends to run.
I haven’t been this sad about a perminent restaurant closure in New Orleans since Nino’s on Carrolton or the City Park Bud’s Broiler closed.
