Look forward to having you at Gala! Ask for me when you get there, I’m there most nights! - Tara
Yes, I was shocked about the change up at Lucky’s. Felt like the previous manager had been there forever. Lucky’s is full of long time employees and even thought we don’t go a lot we always see familiar faces. Too bad about Via Vai, seemed like a good fit for that location. Still waiting for Ramon’s new place to open in Country Mart. It has been shuttered up tight with no activity the last few times I’ve been over there.
Interesting list of 16 best new restaurants to try in SB on Eater.com. Can’t say I agree with all the choices, but need to check out Gala and go back to Secret Bao.

How can I contact you?
Tried Yetz and it’s amazing! Just what we needed!
Not sure whether you mean Lama Dog or Teddy's, but the answer is yes either way. Both proprietors confirmed the plans in the recent roundup of forthcoming restaurants: https://www.sitelinesb.com/the-48-restaurants-expected-to-open-in-coming-months/
Is this still happening?
They sure do- but honestly I need fries....and while it's no where near the flavor profile of Priedite- the burgers at Charlies in Los Alamos are danm good- the mushroom burger! The cheeseburger is so good- the shredduce/pickle/special sauce/toasted bun is so close to a Jalama Burger- its criminal....
I thought your post re: Carl Wescotts’s “screw you move” was pretty mean. Katy was not the bad guy in all this. People love to bash celebrities when they don’t deserve it. It’ll be a bad move for the neighbor hood when she doesn’t move in & turns it into an Airbnb. Thanks Carl
DRILL BABY DRILL!
Come on! $19 for a sandwich?? Gold dust on a bagel!
Whatever happened to just good, simple, fairly priced food with friendly service?
Homeless housing directly across from BevMo. Go figure.
George has the smash burger/Shake Shack history here:

No, it's nothing like Third Window. LMAO. Theres NO WAY Shake Shack could source the quality of meat that TW does, and TW makes a very specific type of burger taken from a regional classic and made famous by a YouTube burger influencer. Nobody does it like TW. And what's next, a Taco Bell drive thru?
christine! I agree Priedite Barbeque has the best burger ever!
You Tube
Dan, forgive my ignorance but what is YT?
Love both shake shack and third window... But third window is far superior, as it should be, considering they are handcrafted, and use higher and ingredients.
Shake shack has crinkle cut fries, not waffle... And I think they're the best fast food fries around. But third window fries are great too.
Great photos of the Whale House Erik!
Dear posters, I am also in great disgust of the proposed development. It is great to air your thoughts here, but please send an email addressed to those who have an obligation to right the wrong that sluggish action caused.

Thanks for the notice about the ABR meeting, I'm watching right now on the city of SB YouTube channel. Does everyone know that almost all of the city boards and commissions are live on YT?
What happens to my ten “prepaid” car washes, purchased in good faith
Are we counting Rusty's as a chain?
Great! Another chain coming in to our funk zone. Just what we all need????!!

What whaaaaaaa??? There's milkshakes at Third?!?!?
There's two levels of subterranean parking across pretty much the entire development - it's right there on their website, if you scroll down to the PDF's, it's the last one. There will be more parking spaces in that area once finished than currently exist - 845 residential spots, and 105 retail spots.
