SIAP Has a sign that says "The Original" and another huge red sign that says "So Damn Good"

What is this place?

Sounds like a Torchy's Tacos is headed your way.

How do you even get zoning for a sign that includes a curse word?

FTR, I cuss, but don't really want to explain to my kids.

Their drink menu has a heavy diabeetus focus, so that's a plus.

So close to the hood. It should pull an eclectic crowd of business suits and neighborhood riff raff!

Edit to add my truck was stolen from Fair View Apts in 2004 and I’ve never recovered from that and the fire.

Isn’t the place in the old pelican house basically the same concept?

Well the owners of the whole center really want to knock it down and redevelop it, but they are stuck with some long term leases ( I am guessing Hooters ? ) .. so I think the plan the last few years has been to let the center go to crap and hope the up and leave.. That is why the back side facing the interstate has been halfway finished for years, I believe.

Maybe adding Krab Queenz will help them run it in to the ground further and quicker ?

From a 2017 business report article
quote:

Scott Bankston, who is Hartley’s associate and manages the property, concedes the property has been problematic, and says the highest and best use for the 11-acre site is to demolish and redevelop it. But he says the partners cannot do that because of long-term lease agreements in place.
