lakeside7 Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 We are in Janelle's on Friday evening and met a couple of guys who plan to open a Tex?Mex restaurant on Guadalupe Victoria in August. One of the guys was Mexican who claimed to have family in the US and Guadalajara restaurant business. He stressed the restaurant would be a "real" Tex/Mex place. So how popular do you think it will be?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomgates Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 I think very welcome. Eleana's is the only thing close since El Serape closed several years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there are plenty Texmex eateries in Greenville SC so why should you concern yourself with the lack thereof here? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pappysmarket Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 The OP asked for an opinion as to whether it will succeed. What difference does it make where a respondent now lives if said respondent has some knowledge of the topic? The OP was just asking for opinions, lol. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably will appeal to a percentage of ferners and thereby not last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 I think we have enough restaurants, most are struggling . Why would you open a restaurant now? Inside seating is discouraged at this time. sorry but I don't see it being a success. Just my opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wookie Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 If it is truly Tex/Mex they will be most welcome and will be a huge success. It will be necessary to have delivery at this time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafterbr Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 I agree with Wookie if it is really Tex Mex food I will be a regular customer. This is something lacking Lakeside but I am not sure Canadians will enjoy and there are a lot more of them eating here than people from the southwest USA.
