I just saw an advertisement for this. I had not heard anything about it prior.

LINK

That location has been a black hole for restaurants. It would be nice to have another good restaurant in the area.

Terrible location


I work nearby and stopped at the apres place after a drink for work when they first opened. Seemed like a mini vegas club. Very odd for that locale. I'd like to see Desi Vegas rescue the place and stay open for another lunch spot.

I think it could possibly work - used to be a terrible location but now with the the revamped traffic setup on 190 everything is more accessible now.... once COVID is over I can see it succeeding. The locals will need to support it tho bc it too far down to get a lot of visitor traffic.

Drove past it the other day, and it appears it will maintain the Apris name. Thoght the sign said "Desi Vega and Apris Lounge" or something to that effect?

That is a terrible location, as others have said. Apris is trying to be the Metro of the NS, and I don't see that working. I went there once, and the crowd was a sparse gathering of HeyBros.

My guess is the owner is friends with Vega, so they are trying to save that joint.

The location is not the issue. The three occupants I recall were Boule, Rocketfire Pizza and some cheesy restaurant/club I do not remember. Boule was run by a deadbeat psycho. Rocketfire was very good but the locals did not get coal fired pizza. The other place I never went. The Apres lounge name needs to go. Needs to be Desi Vega’s. No other names.
