No surprised by this. From time to time I have considered eating there and looked at the menu. Nothing appealed to me. This is in part because my tastes are rather simple.
July 7th.I’ve still never been there for a meal. Was there an official close date given?
Also, wonder if they will turn this into a new Universal Restaurant concept or if it turns into something like a store.
You get all the good stuff. The original Pat O'Brien's too. Although the one in Orlando is decent, dueling piano player wise.....Foods not as good though.I never made it there, but I also have the original here, that I've also never been to, so not a huge loss.
Orlando Sentinel reports restaurant staff were told July 7th would be the closing date.I’ve still never been there for a meal. Was there an official close date given?

Perhaps needing these replacements wasn't in Universal's plans and they are primarily focused on planning for the south resort?It's interesting to me that there's been no buzz whatsoever about new restaurants or shops that are obviously coming. I feel like we were hearing rumblings of a chocolate factory restaurant well before NBA City even closed, we heard about Voodoo before Element closed. But there's ZIP about what's replacing either Emeril's location, and the talk of freshening up the shops has gone totally cold, and there's been the occasional talk of Bubba Gump's leaving but nothing about what would move in there.
Could be. But unless this has been some kind of a contentious separation (which I haven't really been getting that vibe), I'd think Universal wouldn't exactly be blindsided by this.Perhaps needing these replacements wasn't in Universal's plans and they are primarily focused on planning for the south resort?

I wouldn’t worry about it. It’s incredibly popular.Margaritaville better not go anywhere. I'm a huge Parrot Head and frequent the restaurant and the bar every time we go to Universal. Fins Up!!
