all the patio furniture was on the rooftop today. Chairs were upside down on top of all the tables. Looks like it's ready to roll. Anyone know the opening date?
Weather is going to — all weekend, so no patio time until next week.
My friend got a job there, they are starting training next week (wednesday). I think we'll have to wait until after the May 24 weekend til it officially opens it doors for business.
I had a tour of the place last Wednesday evening. They still had a lot of finishing work to do and did not have their final inspection or liquor license yet. They where going to have a couple of test nights. Just staff, families of staff and invited guest to get the bugs out. They where hoping to open on this Thursday but it was only a 50/50 chance of that. They want it by this weekend but cannot open until the inspections are satisfied.

I finally walked by on my morning constitutional today, and the places looks fantastic. What a great renovation job! I can't wait to have dinner on the rooftop this summer.
^^ I was just down here and also noticed a couple people eating inside. Also, the Main St door was wide open. It looked like just staff tho, who knows!?
Most large restaurants have what they call a soft opening, where they invite a small number of people to dine free of charge to test everything and work out the bugs. I'm sure the grand opening will be quite the affair.
Yep, walked by today and looked in the windows. They had napkins and cutlery set out on the tables, so they're certainly expecting patronage very soon.
