    7th and Garfield. Under Rancho Allegre and next to Pita Pan. The big Starbucks is across the street, I think.

    If they have good frozen custard, they will definitely be getting business from me :)

    i think the chicken place sounds like something which would be successful. i'll try it for sure.

    to be honest, i'd rather have the wine bar than hanabi also. i thought it was mediocre on a good day, and the couple great wine bars in the neighborhood are either in south slope (brook-vin) or down on 5th (total wine bar) so i'd welcome something closer.

    will be curious to see what they do with the interior.

    ah, thanks. I don't think I've been to any of the places that has been over the past decade (nor to Rancho Allegre, which has been there for ages)

    I think it's an awesome location for a wine bar...there's really nothing like that on that stretch of 7th.

    those are 2-types of businesses that i don't think 7th avenue needs, but then again, maybe i'm just saying that because i miss hanabi and the fine people who worked there.
    The owners are always renovating and changing their restaurants and the culinary style of said restaurants. They go with the style and flow.

    Its the same owner ? This would make sense to me if only because
    I recall that space "changing" several times over the years
    without ever noticing a "for rent" sign.

    totally agree with new2hood; that space is perfect for a wine bar
    i dont know how hanabi survived as long as they did - the place was always empty (more workers than customers always) and is HUGE
