    I'm pretty sure Frickin' Chicken closed. The chicken was good but their location was terrible.

    I can't believe that Jason's is still in business. Their sandwichs ae so generic they taste like cardboard
    It was near the hood. A great location to sell fried chicken

    But a bad location to get good help. Frequent employee turnover, customer complaints, and internal shrinkage have sunk many a good business in the wrong location.

    Am I the only person irritated with this response (because no one else has mentioned it.) Everything (save Bistro Byronz) ranges from decent to terrible? Seriously?

    I wouldn't say decent to terrible, but considering the fact that the area is known for good food, there is a lack of "excellent" or "great" eateries in BR. I'd say most stuff is above average to average, which is below par compared to New Orleans.

    Yeah to the people who lived right there. It was inconvenient to the rest of us.

    I was offended when he said Schlitz had the best pizza.. :huh: I'd say they might possibly have the worst pizza in BR.

    They have a crappy atmosphere, and the place seems fake, but the pizza is top notch.

    Wow, I would have said the exact opposite. I like the atmosphere, but the pizza is like cardboard with grease on top.

    ...to each his own I guess.

    Not a fan of New York style pizza? I love the stuff. And Shlitz is the only place that does it in BR.
