hindesky Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) Several guys using grinders to tear down the metal store front. I guess they may be metal repossessors. Â Edited January 3, 2021 by hindesky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATH Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I asked a person who was overseeing this work, and he says that it will become a Mexican food restaurant, and that the new facade will be stucco. They are hoping for an April 2021 opening. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cspwal Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Were they not able to keep it open because Frank's and Frank's backyard were technically separated? At least in East Downtown, every bar that has at least one chair outside is packed all weekend 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing that it wasn't as successful as they needed it to be, and covid was the catalyst to make them cut bait. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindesky Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 This has a new name, "Taqueria Solecita". 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_cuevas713 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Happy this is opening on this block. Looks like Local Foods won't be coming back, saw a For Lease sign the other day. Not to jump off topic but any word on the renovation of the building where Mia Bella was originally located? Seems to be taking forever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
