Such a cool place. What a bummer.

Is the one in Kearny Mesa on Balboa still around (North of Montgomery Field)? Few years ago it was getting kind of rundown.

 

[coolchange]

Sad. Did a couple dates there and used to be a cool dance spot on Tuesday then head to the Shot of Gold or that Cougar place on roscoe.

I’ve had this card in our Toyota after going there over 15 years ago. I’ve got no idea why this cards stayed in the car.

We use to fly there for dinner ......in the late 70's and early 80's....fun place

No less run down but still open

What a shame. The wife and I spent many nights there and always had a good time. It’s been awhile since we have been to the SFV. Old stomping grounds!!

Cool location. Went for brunch once. Sucks it’s closing.

 

[rivermobster]

Seems like most people (including me) have been there, once.

Probably why it's closing.

My parents took us to the one in Costa Mesa or Tustin on the other side of the John Wayne airport runway back in mid 1970s. Place looked like an old french country farmhouse.

Had many many business lunches there in the 1970s when I worked for Powerboat Magazine and Nordskog Industries. Several of Nordskog's buildings were on Raymer and more on Strathernn Street in Van Nuys. Probably a day didn't go by when at least one or more of the Nordskog management team wasn't having lunch there with a client or vendor.

Nordskog! My FIL always reminds me that he worked for Bob during those days as his CPA when he was powerboat racing..good stories! Teague brothers were the machinics.

Loved going to the 94th years ago. Very cool place.

Good lord, I went there for the first time back in the early 80's. Very cool place. Great Onion soup.

 

[LazyLavey]

Have to get a chunk of carpet for memorabilia ....

Last there in 2014. I'd swear the same carpet as first time I was there in the 70s.

 

[RitcheyRch]

Went there quite often in my younger years. Thankfully the Proud Bird (sister company) is still in existence.

I remember the one next to the John Wayne Airport.
They had headphones on their tables so you could listen to all the air traffic.
It was pretty cool.

If you left 94th turn left on roscoe, it was immediately on the right. Black and white sign. @LazyLavey

 

[johnnyC]

can't place it, but thanks

 

[dave29]

Don't forget what else was on Roscoe. Tommy's!!!! Busch Gardens!!

 

[TPC]

The bar was their money maker. Bar biz all over fell off over the years and that's probably what sank it.

It was where the sushi sign is. Kind of hidden local dive bar. Name was like Teachers Pet or some odd ball theme.
@LazyLavey will know, he went there a lot!
