Goon Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Parrots has the best wings I have had, and that includes Denver. I would love to get my hands on the #12 wing sauce recipe! Yeah, they don't to give that recipe up for some reason.
mg2009 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Are you talking about Gilly's? Didn't realize they had reopened their kitchen. back in february. They've been doing a brisk food business all spring and summer, at least compared to before.
Hammersmith Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Are you talking about Gilly's? Didn't realize they had reopened their kitchen. Very interested in seeing what kind of menu they can put together and if they can be successful at lunch for downtown, something like this could be real popular if they do it right.. Was Gilly's, now Brick & Barley Bar & Restaurant. Craft beers(48 taps) and a much different and expanded menu. http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/270957/
jdub27 Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Was Gilly's, now Brick & Barley Bar & Restaurant. Craft beers(48 taps) and a much different and expanded menu. http://www.grandfork...icle/id/270957/ Aware of all of that but I was unaware that Gilly's had reopened their kitchen which is why I was wondering about what mg was talking about when he referenced a preliminary menu. Have never seen a food menu from Gilly's and the new place doesn't have one listed anywhere yet either. Interested to see if they can have a successful lunch menu, could do very well if done right.

Eating food at the old Gilly's seems questionable at best...regardless of the time of day. I will give this new place a try, love craft beers.
dakotadan Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Gilly's/Brick & Barley is taking a big business risk by going away from the loud music, crazy drunk college dance scene that they were known for and going for a more casual bar/restaurant setting that you can actually carry on a conversation while there. They took the dance floor out a while ago and are doing some major remodeling. But I can see it doing very well if they get the message out to the adult/business crowd that they are no longer a loud college party bar. GF could use more trendy, slightly upscale establishments for the recent college grads and 30+ crowd that are over the dance scene to hang out at.
WeAreNorthDakota Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I think the risk is lessened by the fact that they also own two of the bars where their loud college party crowd will likely go. They'll go from having three party bars that aren't living up to their traffic potential to having two party bars that should see traffic increases and a new concept with potential if it's run well. I like the strategy. 1
mg2009 Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 level10 and oreallys have been busier during the summer than they were in the spring. Granted both those bars took a swan-dive into the shitter over the course of last fall and into the spring.
NoiseInsideMyHead Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Potbelly coming to Fargo in Summer 2014. http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/428972/ Can a GF location be far behind? (Pretty please, restaurant gods?) Or maybe a Firehouse?

The Sicatoka Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Yeah, but I'll take Wild Hog in GF over most other restaurants.
darell1976 Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Yeah, but I'll take Wild Hog in GF over most other restaurants. Where is that located?
UND1983 Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Now, Fargo getting its Firehouse. http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/433486/ What's a guy gotta do to get a decent sandwich in the Forks? West Fargo is getting a Blarney Stone real soon. Same owners as the one in Bismarck. From what I remember they have great food, unique and made from scratch mostly.
UNDBIZ Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 West Fargo is getting a Blarney Stone real soon. Same owners as the one in Bismarck. From what I remember they have great food, unique and made from scratch mostly. Great food, atmosphere, and beer selection. Can get a little loud, but I suppose that may be the mark of a good/busy bar/restaurant.
remington_270 Posted May 1, 2014 Posted May 1, 2014 Where is that located? Wild Hog is on the far south end of town....off South Washington.
werewolfoflondon Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Now, Fargo getting its Firehouse. http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/433486/ What's a guy gotta do to get a decent sandwich in the Forks? Dream for one of these. http://capriottis.com/index.php
Oxbow6 Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Just heard Ken Towers is looking to sell the Italian Moon...price tag $1M. It's a GF icon for as long as I can remember. We hit it at least one night during a UND home hockey series.
gfhockey Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 actually its 1.1 mill man. it is actually quite expensive place to go. only reason I go there is cuz they support the good ole boys and the city of GF.
gfhockey Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Resteraunt business is the hardest business to be in IMO.
MafiaMan Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 love Love LOVE The Italian Moon! Never miss it when I am in town.
mg2009 Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 never been to the moon, never thought about it, never heard anyone talk about going there. What is that place, exactly? I take it that they serve some sort of Italian fare?
siouxstudent Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 quote name='werewolfoflondon' timestamp='1398997100' post='706631' Dream for one of these. http://capriottis.com/index.php Yesss Capriottis is the absolute best!!
UNDBIZ Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 I've never understood the infatuation with Italian Moon. Hopefully the next owner cleans it up as the building is a disaster.
