weird. Wasn't ever really my style but the few times I was there within the past few years it was always packed and whenever I leave downtown (I always park in the Richardson deck) it always seems busy late at night.

Could be quite good (in a Chophouse 47 sort of way??)! But G'vegas already has a good selection of chain and local steak houses.

I will not make a perverted comment regarding the G-Spot. I will just go watch Southpark instead.

My understanding of the situation was this.

The G spot had been given several violations for serving minors, and over occupancy among other things.
I believe that city officials were pretty much planning on shutting them down or keeping them under such close supervision that staying in business would be a hassle.
The main reason for this is not only because the Gspot out of all the late night hot spots had not played by the rules but also because its proximity to the One Project. They were the proverbial "poop in the punch bowl" and had to go.

So the owner has decided that instead of calling it wraps and walking with nothing he would try his hand at a steak house. I have no idea if it will be any good at all but if they can compare at all with Sassafras I will be impressed. I would look out for some kind of "Late Night Component" to be part of the business plan.

This is what I have heard regarding this project but I cannot confirm that this is the case.

Do you think the G spot will move to another location? I heard that was a happening place.

It was a happening place because of their relatively loose carding policy. It was full of 18 and 19 years olds, so it drew a pretty big crowd.
