Does Bergeron's market stay busy?

Absolutely, plus they do catering.

From what I know, there doing rather well.

Bao? Every time I've gone it has been busy

Not the cheapest but still very fair for what you get.

Agreed, however I don't mind paying for it because the restaurant is always clean, the servers are very social and make you feel welcomed and the food is consistently good.

Sam's Southern Eatery

I've never eaten there, so I can't speak to food or service quality.

However, they moved from a restaurant graveyard on Jones Creek to a restaurant graveyard on Sherwood Forest (the former Brewbacher's & Uncle O's among others).

I wish them luck, however.

Is this place legit?

My wife’s coworker recommended it, kept telling us where it was but there is zero signage on Airline. I finally saw the sign on Old Jefferson.

The new sushi place on Perkins/staring. Used to be a Calanders and a few other places. Not only is the location horrible, there’s 3 other sushi restaurants on that intersection.

I see this has been mentioned

Also, whatever is in that horrible location on One Calais drive off Essen. It blows my mind that people continue to try to make the location a restaurant

Omi? It's lauded round these parts but even so the parking lot always seems empty.

I think it and that horrible Jimmy Johns location are trying to hold on till the Children's Hospital opens in 2019.

Sakaya. The only reason I can fathom that they're still in business is because they paid $900,000 for the building and just won't let it go. I tried it once and the food is unfortunately mediocre at best. I'm still scratching my head as to why they plopped themselves down into a plethora of established sushi places within walking distance...Tokyo, Samurai, Tsubaki, Shinto. It's sad too because every time I pass by, it's only the same blue car and same red truck in the parking lot, which are the owners/workers. Extremely slow turnover and raw fish do not make for a good equation. I almost wish they'd put themselves out of their misery and move on.

Guy saying Your Mom's and Fuzzy's is just being lazy. Both places have steady business and are inexpensive enough to keep the business coming. Your Mom's does a ton of Waitr business as well.
