musicman Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 When Kevin Munz makes his less than bashful entrance into the restaurant business, Clear Lake may feel a bit more like Las Vegas.His Cullen's Upscale American Grille, set to open in January, will be about 38,000 square feet, which is gigantic, about 10 times larger than a typical restaurant.His lounge will have a fiber-optic floor, a player piano and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchtastic Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 good luck on pawn-shop dude getting consistent, quality staff. I hope his FOH management is from the hotel bidness. That's a lot of potentially unhappy customers. Sounds like Dave and Busters without the games. Ewwww. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdude Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Any place that seriously names itself "Upscale American Grill" sounds like a bad joke. Truly "upscale" restaurants don't have "56 large LCD screens projecting art by the masters" or the choice of Versace or Titanic china patterns. The place just sounds hopelessly vulgar.

musicman Posted September 30, 2007 Author Share Posted September 30, 2007 IMO Clear Lake tends to be frugal when it comes to places like this. its location relatively near the beltway may be good for drawing customers from areas farther away.

The place just sounds hopelessly vulgar.Maybe after your meal you can browse the showroom floor for a nice three-piece sofa set. Wait - oh, this isn't another mega-furniture store with another gimmick to get you to shop there? You could have fooled me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 All that cheese sounds fattening.Regarding location, Clear Lake has no shortage of residents and lake goers who appreciate over-the-top gaudiness. However, it strikes me that they would prefer 56 large LCD screens projecting images of Hooters girls on cigarette boats, and their choice of paper plates or styrofoam over the choices Munz plans to give them.But hey, "whatever floats your boat".
