Or the new sushi
Speaking of sushi we did Katami last weekend and it was excellent. Highly recommend
We also stopped by Sidebar at Bunker Hill and I-10 (next door to Credence) on the way home and it was cool too. Small intimate speakeasy with live jazz music and martinis.
We'll be going back to both spots.

I hope the pizza place does well, but I didn't know there was a market for a high-end pizza joint. $20-26 before tax and tip for a personal pizza isn't something I'm chomping at the bit to experience. I'm sure it'll do well the first 6-months but we'll see if it can maintain repeat business. At least pizza is a rather high profit margin item since its mostly just dough.
It has to do well since he dumped $2.1 million into the build out.
Did they resolve whatever your issue with them was?
No. They are refusing to resolve the issue which deprives me of peaceful enjoyment of my propeety.
Loud music or bright lights?
Their HVAC system is extremely loud. It's so loud you can hear it a block away. It sounds like a leaf blower running 24/7.

$25 for a 16" piece of dough with sauce and cheese (maybe $2-3 total raw materials max), and only 5 min or so to finished product. And no need for a gang of chefs. Yeah it's gotta be pretty amazing margins.

Gotcha, will have to drive by and see. Not much you can really do about that other than building a wall or something to try to trap some of that sound.

Well we can have HPD write them noise violation citations until they get sick of paying fines and solve the problem on their own, but we don't want to do that. We'd rather come to an amicable resolution, even if it means we contribute to the cost, but so far they are trying as hard as they can to avoid resolving the problem.

At $20 profit per pizza he only needs to sell 105,000 of them to payback his $2,100,000 loan, without interest.

Give it a couple of months, and I'm sure some of Houston's finest will help to relocate that HVAC system for them!

And they'll probably blame it on me.

Not sure of all the prices, but there are a lot of nicer pizza joints, and they seem to do OK
Coastline Pizza
Gypsy Poet
Pizaro's
Gold Tooth Tony's
Via 313
Don't forget Nonno's. It seems like that place is always packed.
Shredders isn't bad either.

Can't imagine they are real anxious to drop $80-100K to replace brand new HVAC units.

They don't need to replace it. They just need to reduce the amount of sound it transmits into the neighborhood. That should be easy, quick, and inexpensive. In fact, as I understand, the offending unit only serves the vent hoods in the kitchen, so there is no reason for them to run 24 hours a day. If they just turned it off after they close and didn't run it all night, it would cost them nothing (and probably reduce their electric bill in the process).
Was thinking it might be the vent hoods. Usually those go to the roof, but on this building the vent out the side. Plus all the units are on the ground too.

Since the owner of the property likes to stalk me on here, maybe they'll encourage their tenant to resolve it.
Or play the long game... do an Astroturf movement to convince next years' spring breakers that Angie's is a must while in town.

It was before the restaurant name was ever announced. Either someone who works at the developer posts on TA or someone close to them does.
ETA: In case you didn't notice, there's a post on this thread from someone who seems to have detailed knowledge of how the HVAC was installed in this building.
Went by this new spot called The Beez Kneez off of 19th the other day that I thought was a really cool concept. It felt like walking into the set of an 80s/90s sitcom.

Went to the one in Austin a while back. It was cool until it got crowded and then some lunatic started shooting up Austin right behind it. My wife and I did leave before that craziness.

Sorry, but im not the developer or the owner, but I am in construction and live close by. You can drive by and see where are the units are located.

Good to know. I wouldn't want to falsely accuse you of something, since the developer/owner tried to mess with my livelihood by falsely accusing me of a state jail felony after I opposed their parking variance application.
Yeah ... real good neighbors we have here.

That is nuts.
They're longhorns. What would you expect?
But anyway, I recently went to Tumble 22 on Houston Ave. It's yet another hot chicken joint. I don't know when they opened, but I finally made it in. The food was good and prices are reasonable. The broccoli slaw is interesting in a good way. I had the buffalo chicken sandwich at "cluckin' hot" spice level (2nd hottest), and I was actually slightly disappointed, although it was stinging my buddy's eyes from across the table. Service was quite slow, however. I'll definitely go back.
So, like, I need to adjust my expectations for trying this high demand pizza as a basic commoner.
Whatever, TexAgs…

I've seen enough. Money laundering operation confirmed. Unleash the 'Fino...
It is ok, service is terrible there. They need to revamp the spice menu, the spice levels are weak so you have to level up for some heat.
Anyone been keeping up with the drama at Beau Soleil?
Seems a partner locked the other 2 co-owners out and hired the sheriffs department to not let them in.
