New Moss Bluff Restaurant
 
For those of you who live in the Moss Bluff area what type restaurant would you like to see come to town. All we have are fast food restaurants and a half-arsed catfish place. Faustos gets real old, real quick. Tired of popeyes, micky d's, wendys, Burger king and checkers. I like Fiesta tamale -- real fresh mexican food.

So, what's ya'lls opinion?

huntin fool 06-23-2011 09:57 PM

I wouldn't mind a Chick-Fil-A or Arby's up in the Bluff..

Were about to get a new joint where Mr. Bills was. It will be Southern Spice

Big Flounder 06-23-2011 09:58 PM

I'm tired of fast food too. My favorite right now is Italian but you can't go wrong with a good Chicken Chimichanga.

Blue Wave 2200 06-23-2011 09:59 PM

Mr Bill's is now next to 5 Star on 171.

Harry's??


The owners of Mr. Bills and the sign says moving to the Pink Pig on 171 in North Lake Charles... It'll be called Mr. Bills express or something like that. Southern Spice is open already.. Just found out.

Blue Wave 2200 06-23-2011 10:07 PM

Yeah, are where Harry's was. There is a vinyl sign by the road with Mr Bill's on it. They have to get the gaming license moved over into their name before they can change the sign on the restaurant.

Blue Wave 2200 06-23-2011 10:08 PM

Guess they will have the restaurant and the express.

Blue Wave 2200 06-23-2011 10:21 PM

I'd like to see a Saltgrass Steak House somewhere in SW Louisiana. There's one in Beaumont now.

ScubaLatt 06-23-2011 11:24 PM

probably wont be a major steakhouse or chain restaurant (non-fast food) due to the low population. Will have to be a smaller franchise like a gattis, fox's pizza or something along those lines.

What about an italian rest with pizza, pasta, sandwiches, subs, etc?

Go for it man! You ever open the ice machine?

weedeater 06-24-2011 05:37 AM

Thought old Pink Pig was gona be Steamboat Bills? I thought that the Chuck Wagon BBQ place was good, Taco Bell is in the works at old Video Attraction, good Chines would be good and I mean good not that gut rot we have. Problem with the Bluff ao far and its changein but not enuff daytime people out there to eat so you have to get a nite crowd but hey people go to DI's Seafood in Eunice and we use to go to Iowa to eat Bigg Daddys.

joshdomingue 06-24-2011 07:37 AM

Hooters would be nice!!!!!!!

ScubaLatt 06-24-2011 07:51 AM

still researching the ice machine. Not sure about the huge cost to profit thing yet though.

SULPHITE 06-24-2011 09:03 AM

from a small town perspcetive...I don't know how but Casa Ole kills every mexican restraunt that tries to open up in Sulphur...I mean that place is always packed in the evenings...kids love tex mex and I like margaritas...kids baseball teams, softball teams are always there during the summer with all the tourneys in Sulphur. Casa has been around awhile so it must be working...cheap food, but it gets the job done. Especially since we have such fine taste buds in Sulphur :shaking:

joshdomingue 06-24-2011 09:07 AM

yea i heard pink pig is becoming Steamboat bill's........... an italian rest would be nice!!!! Open up a daiquiri place..... the nearest one is sulphur or LC

Feesherman 06-24-2011 05:53 PM

Faustos is filthy! Cannot believe people eat in there sheet hole. Dey building dat big fancy place out on the river east of MB like where the old nursing home used to be. Sucka is huge and gonna be on the water. It gonna draw the whole goos ferry road crowd.

If ya talking about the new place in the curve off old town road, yep gonna be a restaurant, grocery, bait type place. Got a hellava warf built on the river. The RV camp ground looks like it is going to be nice. Rumored that just East on the old folks home piece of property may be a hotel being built in the future.

First I hear of it. Not surprised, though, food was second rate. Service was even worse. That place has such huge potential. It could easily be like DIs or Aucoins without the long drive.

weedeater 06-25-2011 04:31 AM

First thing is beating out old money iin the Bluff and after you do this then there is a secret that some places have learned. You take a place like DI's or Bigg Daddys or Shuck's or any other restraunt that makes it in the middle of no where and there is a secret in there some where and its not only good food or service its a mix of things.

DUCKGOGETTER 06-25-2011 07:21 AM

I think a hooters, ****s or a dave and busters would do good in moss bluff or lake charles

thats somthin I was thinkin, most of your places way out that make it do a night or two live music and it makes it nice to sit an listen even if you have diff styles come through. We use to go to the place in Lacc and eat crabs and listen to the band and laugh at the drunks:D. You could build a Papasita and Papadeaux and have some spanish and french music, we got plent mexicans around the Bluff to work

i'm thinkin a cool setup would be an ice house style set-up, metal building roll up doors for the fall and spring time, stage, dance floor, then maybe wall off 3 rooms, 2 for get togethers and 1 just for people who want to be away from the bar style them (dance floor). Serving seafood, steaks mostly. Calling it "Kick Back at Latts"

There is going to be a 26 acre park built by the parish where the launch is located.

where that house is? thought the park wass back around both sides of launch, thats to say they ever build the park.

Gerald 06-25-2011 12:17 PM

I think the park will be from the boat launch area to the west to the bend in the river.

I don't know if it includes the land [house] up by the road. The listing for that house included about 6 acres of land. About a year ago, the land behind the house was partically cleared, but it has grown up some now.

well IF the park ever gets built, that house area would make a great sspot for business; restraunt, gas station bait shop, rv park or all in one;)
