If Jason Jackson took over he would kill it there. He made Sammys and he is a well liked awesome man.

I’m not sure why you are hating on that location. Superior knocks it out of the park right down the road. George’s does just fine right there too.

That $25,000 price tag for rent is a ton of money though.

A restaurant would need to make $6 mill per year to make that rent worth it.

The two names that keep coming up (only rumors) for the Highland location are The Chimes and Parrains. Sammy's used to knock it out of the park at the Highland location (until Jason left and food/service went to crap) so I would imagine there is a fair amount of interest in the location.


Unless something has changed, Chimes (which also owns Parrains), only builds restaurants on land in which they own. They aren’t going to lease out such a small property for another restaurant 6 miles down the road from the original.

Donnie Jarreau can get on down the road and kick rocks.


Oh, and while we are setting up areas of the new restaurant, let's not forget the Political Room Dungeon:

Prove your ultra right/Nazi/QAnon bona fides as you wait your turn to be penetrated by an anatomically correct (designed by Stormy) Real Doll of your Dear Leader, as you yell "Thank you sir! May I have another!!" Once you have passed this entrance (lol) exam, you can sit around on your lounge chairs while leather bound gimps serve cognac and skrimp cocktail. You may spend the rest of the evening discussing how terrible white people are treated.
