9 South Chargrill: Still Not Open

By: Mr. Wilson on May 10, 2007
Looks like owner Brett Richardson hasn't quite made his goal of opening by now. The Missus and I tried to stop by 9 South Chargrill last night on our weekly Date Night, but the restaurant was closed. I didn't get out of the car to take a close look, but it looked like the interior was reasonably close to being ready. If any of you happen to notice that it has opened, please let me know. Since our first choice was a bust, The Missus and I decided to go down to Arturo's in the Haymarket. I had never been to Arturo's, and The Missus had only been to the (former) 70th and Van Dorn location years ago. The food was fine and the atmosphere was nice, but the service was pretty awful. It was our server's first night on the job and he was ... bad. I don't place all of the blame on him, though. He clearly had not received much training. (Or if he did, it hadn't sunk in.) He should not have been taking tables solo yet. I shudder to think what will happen to the poor guy if he has to tackle a busy weekend night.

I thought may 9th was supposed to be the opening date.  We drove past last night as well.  :(

Still, I am pretty excited for it to open.  I hope it is good grub.  On them days when we just want to grab a burger and not eat the usual chain crap, it will be nice to head to the neighborhood chargrill.

Sweet, thanks for the update beerorkid. The Missus and I may try to drop by on Wednesday evening.
