Aqua To Open Soon
One thing you can't say about the new owner is that he's lazy. Phil has been working his butt off renovating the old space and preparing it for his new Bar/Restaurant on the Downtown Plaza.
You can expect a soft opening with friends and family some time in the next week or so. Then, they'll swing their doors with food only. A delay in paperwork has slowed down their getting a hearing with the Liquor Board. This gives them the time to finish the Bar details and before you know it they'll be up and running.
Several restaurants have come and gone on the Plaza. Phil gutted the entire kitchen and rebuilt it to deliver a quality product in a very clean environment, similar to his Downtown Deli across the street on the Plaza.
It will take community support to keep this business alive, along with good food and service, of course. Phil wants a few weeks of being open before he gives the go ahead to announce they're open for business and quite frankly this is a very smart move. Get all the kinks out ahead of time. One local restaurant didn't do the same and unfortunately people got the wrong impression of their product and service.
We'll keep you posted and we wish Phil the very best. He's worked very hard and he's earned it.
Im sure free parking would help.

ReplyDeleteThere is free 2 hour parking.
Why don't we have more bars and restaurant downtown? What needs to change to make it a more vibrant area?
