Debate the reasons certain restaurants close all you want, but don't ignore the
one thing they all had in common: bad to mediocre food that could be found
anywhere in the seven county metro. There is a reason Zelo, Ike's, Bella Notte
and other, non-chain restaurants are succeeding downtown and it isn't related
to the smoking ban or simply because of location: they offer food, drink
and/or environment/scene that can't be found elsewhere. Why would I go to
Olive Garden downtown (or ever, for that matter), pay for parking, deal with
one-way streets (egad!) if I have one in my local community?
