What independent restaurants have been open since the 1990s?

Bailies just changed their "Summer Hours" to dinners only, and opened in the 1990's.

Hacienda?

That location is worth a lot more than the listing for the business. Also wouldn't consider it to be fit the "The Loyal Clientele Tends To Be Upscale, With Business Professionals, Government Representatives, And Mostly Adult Residents Of The Community. Guests Are Consistently Drawn In By The Ambiance Within." description.

The listing says it's currently just open for dinner, and opened in the 1990s. I have no idea when Balcony Bistro opened, but know it's open for more than dinner. However, with it's location, I would assume that they would be asking a lot more for the business.

oh thats right, they are open on weekends for breakfast and weekdays for lunch - forgot about that..

hmmm, gotta think about this one - but its definitely not Bailies

They're open for lunch. Also think that they'd note the wine bar in the description.

Yep, they're open for lunch. Hubby does as many work-related lunches there he can.

There are a ton of Folsom restaurants for sale. Looks like the Sushi Shack's for sale.

Hahaha I didn't see Sushi Shack lasting very long - never ever once saw anyone in there when I rode by daily

that name just does not sound appealing (for me anyways)

I think the giveaway is the "now open for dinner only"

The only restaurant in town that I know is dinners only is Bailies, and they only just changed it with their "Summer Hours".

That, and only 2100sf? Bailies is intimate inside (in the description) and is the only upscale place of that size I am aware of.

It sure reads like one of our two favorites. Better get the Sushi Rolloff completed before Taiko folds wink.gif

There's another one that reads exactly like Kirala (located in Safeway shopping center, near Intel)
