How long did you physically wait in the restaurant???

2 hours. The meal had already been charged to my card when I ordered, and they kept telling me 15 minutes. In hindsight, there are plenty of things that I should have done to just cancel the order and go home. But that experience is more than enough of a reason for me to never go back.

Location....WD shopping center has been dying ever since ROUSES opened across the street...
Also its too hard to get in and out of the shopping center...
If it was in the rouses shopping center it might made it...

Based on what I hear on this board the BR location of everything is the worst.

Fuzzys started as a cool low key taco joint next to TCU. The food was great

Just like everything else, they sold to corporate America years ago and they took it nationwide and the quality went down

Fuzzy's the Dallas chain? If so, that's garbage, even at their flagship in Dallas.

We had one here in Clinton. Went several times and said "Taco Bell is as good as this stuff", so we stopped wasting our money there. Not my fault, but they went out of business within a year.

I hear that parking is a nightmare and things are too hard to get in and out of all of the time. Hell, fuzzys is mostly a parking lot.

If I had to guess it's similar to Mellow Mushroom closing. Corporate decision.

Mellow closing wasnt because of a corporate decision. It was because a certain clientele was allowed to roost there, and shootings and stabbings started to happen in the parking lot. Thats when the money customers stopped showing up.

and THATS when Corporate pulled the plug.

It's a mile from LSU in the same parking lot as a grocery store. Yes, turning in can be a bit tough, but the Lee light has turn signals to where you could always get a right turn into the lot.

The location is not the reason they're closing.

Yes but Zippys has 10x the atmosphere Fuzzys has. This matter much more than yall acknowledge. Just look at Omi.

You add Torchy's and the college crowd which was the staple of their business started going to Torchy's instead



Fuzzy's is better than Torchy's.

What is good at Torchy's? Every time I have been it is incredibly average for the price.
