A Charleston-based restaurant group bought the property and plans to bring a new dining concept to open in early 2022.

I find it interesting that such a popular and famous restaurant would be bought simply for the location.

Usually such a place would have people lined up to buy the name and recipes of such an established restaurant.

Apparently no one that desired to carry on the current business could compete with the conglomerate that wanted only the location.

Over the last 15 years downtown Greenville SC has been transformed into a Yuppie haven. Trendy restaurants with haute cuisine,performing arts, mixed use development, parks and all of that. Under centralized city planning, the old saw about highest and best use determining value, local guys get squeezed out.
