I saw if for the first time on Sunday. Looks like they would have advertised the opening, especially since they are hidden and it is off-season.

Yeah, the comment made was, "I can't believe a restaurant has opened without being completely debated and picked apart on SoWal".

I'm guessing the phrase, "picked apart," includes compliments. Many open with compliments from posters on SoWal.com.

I was at several businesses at Gulf Place yesterday, and many employees and customers were raving about this place. Glanced at a menu- sandwiches, wraps and salads and all priced reasonably. Hopefully it will be an easy place to pick up the lunch that I usually have to eat in my car!

They opened up last Saturday. It is clearly a soft opening but they are getting busy very quickly! Mrs Bchtravlr and I have had breakfast there 3 times, lunch today, and took Cheesecake to a dinner party last week! I think it is fantastic and have yet to hear anything negative from all those who have been.

For Breakfast you can get breakfast sandwiches for $3.95, Lunch Salads and Sandwiches are $6.95, and cheesecake slices are less than $3.00.

They are open 7 - 7, 7 days a week! They were so busy these past few days they realize they need more help and are looking for more staff!

We saw the sign and the space last month, and I nearly fell out of the car when we drove past. I used to work with the daughter of the man who started the company, and she's the one who actually named the company. At the time I worked with her, the business was in its early stages. They sure have grown! Apparently, the Gulf Place location is the first franchise location. It's kind of an interesting story; almost like Mrs. Fields, only a man instead:

I've been there twice in two days. It's good. The prices are very reasonable and IMO it's just what the area needed. On the other hand it will probably make me fatter.

You sound like SJ on the Delta Grill thread.😀

This place sounds Y.U.M.M.Y. Good for you locals!!:clap:

I know the owners of this place. They moved here from Missouri earlier this year. it is really a top notch place. I will try to get them on the message board. I'm sure they're very busy right now just getting opened. It's packed every time I drive by!

Not only is it packed - it's GOOD!!!!

Their pumpernickel rye (for the reuben!) is so light and toasted perfectly!

And - they have the best chicken salad around. Grapes, pecans and onions... oh yea, some chicken, too! :cool:

It's in Gulf Place, a few buildings behind Smiling Fish Cafe. Got a menu last night! Looks welcoming and inviting, and attractively priced.

Have no idea how any of you in the area stay on a diet with so many great places to eat. :bang:

Bikini & beach season lasts 8 months!

Plus, the food at the local restaurants is generally more healthy/better for you than the typical fast food offered elsewhere. :wub:
