Rent on that space is like $18k a month or thereabouts.
Holy hell! That's crazy.

And they will supposedly have a courtyard setup similar to Bacchanal.
This will be a huge plus if they do this right. There isn't one place in Metairie with even a decent outdoor set up. That place will kill it with people wanting to sit outside on weekends and drink.

You will not be disappointed in Oak Oven assuming their food stays the same quality as it does in Harahan. Don’t let the fact that it originated in Harahan turn you off from the place.
Source: I work in Harahan and it’s the regular rotation for myself and many coworkers.
The one thing that does scare me is the size of the venue, as alluded to a few posts up. They get all their ingredients locally and although locally sourced food has become an almost played out trend, you really can tell the food higher quality than your average pizza/pasta joint. I’m worried they will have to compromise on the quality of ingredients to meet the higher demand/overhead.

Sounds like from what you and Gino and others have said it's worth trekking into Harahan to check it out.
