barracuda Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Good to hear. I wonder if they will have any outdoor/sidewalk tables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToolMan Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Good luck to them. Every place seems to fail at that location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdbaker Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Yeah, but mostly lousy chains. Yatra just failed next door as well.I'm not surprised that Yatra failed. Part of the their business model involved not including rice with any of their entrees, and then charging extra for it. That sort of thing doesn't fly in this town. I think Ziggy's will do well. Lawyers and Energy Execs who wouldn't eat at the Nestle Toll House shop will eat Ziggy's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggys Grill Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Good to hear. I wonder if they will have any outdoor/sidewalk tables.Yes, definitely. We have outdoor seating at our other 2 restaurants and have already started work on our sidewalk permit for Downtown. We'll have patio seating on both Main and Capital. We will have a full bar so drinks allowed on the patio as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggys Grill Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 had forgotten about that, good call.Yes, I've asked the Downtown District if they could help us get a bike rack. Many of my employees bike to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specwriter Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I was dissappointed to see that Ziggy's on Alabama at Greenbriar had closed. I just had lunch there in early January. I'm pleased to see the new restaurant opening at Main and Capitol though. I am downtown often enough during the day and evenings that I'm sure I will be making at least monthly visits.I know it is difficult to maintain more than one restaurant location. When the Carter & Cooley Deli on Prairie closed I asked the owner why that was. He said between the location in the Heights and the one downtown he was strectched too thin and feared that quality would suffer.Ziggy, I'll see you soon.Oops! There is only one 's' in disappointed. I guess I am greatly disappointed that the Ziggy's closest to my office and apartment closed. Like I wrote though, I know how to find my way to the new one.

The Great Hizzy! Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I've been meaning to give the new location a try. Today, however, I passed it up in favor of Byrd's and tried their turkey and swiss. Not a bad sandwich but a little expensive. Ziggy's is definitely next up.
