Lobster Pound

and the behemoth sign says opening 12/7. There was only one car there, until another one pulled up. That was around 4 p.m.

I'll try anything once.

I googled Faro Italian Grille, and I found that they are closed on Mondays. Seems odd that they would have their big opening on a Sunday and then close the following day, but they did. Anyway, I wish them well.

Thank you for looking that up. I'm always in the mood to go out to dinner on a Monday and well, there are always the other haunts.

I'm still curious as to why they had to put up such a huge sign. Unsightly really, I guess it just goes along with the rest of it.

The Lobster Pound sign was exactly the same size. They simply utilized the same frame. Really??? The sign???

I thought the Lobster sign was atrocious. We'll have Times Square signage next. Kidding of course, but it is really HUGE. *old soul

GOOD LUCK Mike and Richie! I wish you guys the best of luck and I plan on enjoying the new place soon. Most people don't understand the challenges of a restaurant business when they post their thoughts. You guys do a great job and I commend you for your efforts.

does matter. In writing a business plan your "consumer" matters as much as your profit margin.

Anywho, I don't think anyone wished them ill will. I for one hope they stay around. It is slim pickin's as far as diversity. One can only go to the same 4/5 restaurants for so long. If they serve a good quality meal for a decent price, they'll survive. And that is if they got a decent deal on the rent/purchase. If not . . .

For summer weekend regulars, we run out of places to go, so I hope they are good and successful. For me that means good tasting food, competitive pricing with other local places, selection including hearty and light entrees, quick and polite service in a clean, comfortable atmosphere. That's a tough job, that's why so few restaurants survive. It's even tougher in a seasonal location.

Good Luck Faro!

Very good. Great prices for great food. Homemade pasta, homemade sauces. Very authentic. Nadia's was the best Italian restaurant in the area when they were in business. Faro will def take that title over imho.

Nadia's was the best. I don't see butternut squash ravioli on the menu. I'll need to make a suggestion.
