Found it surprising that Asian Galaxy didn’t last there…..thought the food was good and they were fairly busy the times I dined there….oh well.
I think that’s a tough spot for a restaurant for access reasons. You have to do a u-turn to get there if you’re headed East on Forest Hill, and if you’re headed west and want to head back east, well, there’s that U-turn issue again.
I used to patronize Planet Wings when it was in that spot, but I’ve got to admit that did factor into the decision of whether or not to make the effort.
I think it’s tough to make a lasting go of it on that side of the street for those 2.5 blocks unless you have a guaranteed monopoly (ABC) or have seriously low overhead (Martins gas station) What, one attendant can fit in the cashier’s booth? Those traffic islands didn’t do any favors for retail in the specific location I’m describing.
Is Evo still open? I thought their menu looked pretty interesting, and wanted to give it a try. But we recently drove by, and it looked closed…
It was open last night when I drove past.
Still open.
