The one I'm most pissed about... The Gap!

Wyatt's Cafeteria


Where'd you get that list from YouBet?

Wyatt's is on there. We keep a running tab for our own entertainment.

Moraleos (sp?) Mexican joint on 80

Got closed down after they got caught running drugs through it.

Little Italy (Albertson's shopping center, next to the medical clinic)
Also was shut down because they were laundering money through it. I had a friend who was working there when the FBI/DEA/INS showed up. She said they arrested everyone in the restaurant but her and one of the hostesses.

what the heck is up with Longview?

its one crazy ass party town

It's also turing into a run down sheithole as well.

Got a buddy that used to manage one of the 2 day video's in Longview.

Updated and alphabetized.

Added Hupei.

Add Collier's furniture downtown

And this has been bothering me...

what is the name of the barn looking thing that is now the ski shop? 2 doors down from where Pay-less Cashways was.

Is the Rio Palm Isle closed?

Not last time I was in Longview... I think it's only open Thurs-Sat, but there is some hole in the wall bar that's open 6 days a week.

I'm headed to Longview for the 1st time in over a year tomorrow, I'll check it out.

Sport Line is now a used book store.

The Rio Day Bar is no longer operational. The Rio Palm Isle itself was bought out by another group and is now a Tejano club. The original owner did some shady financial dealings and had to sale.

my dad wa a bouncer at the rio and saw sinatra perform there in the 40s

gibson's gone - my mom used to drop me off in the comic book section while she shopped

no Rio day bar? No Rio for whitey? Damn.

It is now a mexican bar.

I think it was called

Taco ______ (can't remember, but I'd know it if I saw it), I had to do a doubletake to make sure I was reading it right.

Godfather's Pizza was by Tom Thumb.

Video Safari?! yes! that's the first place my family ever rented a video from. What was it? "Thriller". Scared the HELL out of me (I was a kid) when Michael Jackson turned into a werewolf.

Good call on Godfather's.

Mr. Ghatti's.

Faces

The Town's Best Pizza...Honest!

Monico's

"Too Legit To Quit"

I'm most pissed about El Chico...used to eat there every Wednesday night. Mr. Gatti's was awesome too.

Pizza Inn on the loop.

Whataburger on the loop closed.

The one on the Loop and Judson closed a while ago...


Are you talking about that one or the one at the Loop and [whatever the street name that was...in PT area]

the whataburger in the pine tree area has closed but they opened a new one across gilmer rd. from the new walmart. so basically they just moved not "closed"

How long before that new seafood place in the old Whataburger Judson location closes?

Anyone tried it yet?

Longview and seafood just do not mix...

You shut your mouth! Dudley's is awesome.

Johnny Cace's on the other hand sucks.

Dud's is alright...

I just believe that any sort of seafood restaurant is better the closer it is to the ocean.

Johnny Casey's is tearwubble </Stephen A. Smith

Fisherman's Market is greatness.
