It's time!!!! We are prepping and cleaning so we can open tomorrow the 29th. I hope i remember how to make pizza! It'll be a little bumpy until I get back into the routine but we are ready. Hope to see you all soon! Thanks for waiting!

Hmm. What's on my mind? Here we go...

Got the last 20% of the work left. With how long i need to run the oven to get it back to temp, I could probably try and get open for this Sunday. But at that point, the damage is done and I'd rather take the time to get the place cleaned up good and get the painting done.
This experience had drained me. Feels weird to want to get back to work. I'm sorry it's taking so long. Hopefully, it'll be worth it in the end.
Final answer: we will reopen Wednesday, July 29th. Excited for you all to see the results. Thanks for your patience and understanding. See you soon!

Hello everyone! A little update. Once the work began, we found more work. Old building. New problems. The work will continue this week and afterwards the cleaning and painting will be extensive. That makes the plan to reopen the 15th impossible. New target is Wednesday the 22nd. I'll post another update as we get closer. Appreciate the patience!
Every day the price for everything kept going up so a small cheese pizza will be $50 when we reopen. Haha! Just kidding. Look forward to getting back in there and getting back to business!!

Thank you.

Here's the deal...

We are in full renovation mode at work. Lots of different jobs going on. Bank account is draining by the minute. Depending on how bad things look behind these walls, the timeline may change. We are trying for a return on Wednesday July 15th. Any change will be announced here, Google, website..

As much as we don't miss the heat, we need to get back to sweating and making money. Appreciate your patience.

Also, have a safe and happy Fourth of July!

Edit: i originally said we close after July 28th. It's June 28th. This Sunday. Sorry about that.

Just a reminder...

After Sunday, June 28th, we will be closed for major renovations. The tentative return day is Wednesday, July 15th. It's likely to be later than that depending on how much extra work is needed to get things fixed.
The message on the phone will be updated as needed along with social media. Keep an eye out.
If anyone has an extra 10 grand or more sitting around, feel free to send it over. Lol
As always, appreciate your understanding and we'll see you asap.

Thanks.

Notice... we have been closing the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend for years. That's not changing. We will be closed Sunday May 24th. Have a safe, happy holiday!

Also, there will be a post closer to the time but just a heads up... we will be closed from the beginning of July until whatever renovations i can afford are done. At least 2 weeks. Mark the calendar. And if anyone wants to pay for the work, I'll take it. Turns out it's more than $100 to do the roof. But that's a headache for another day.
As always, appreciate the understanding.

Came down top the wire but the phone is back! You wouldn't believe the effort it took to get this done. 285 phone calls. 391 emails that had to be approved. I'm tired and more stressed than usual. Time for a long day. Thanks for your patience!

Also, closed Sunday for Easter. Happy Easter!

Wouldn't be a normal day at the Rendezvous without something happening. We are currently experiencing phone issues. Please come place your order in person if at all possible. We will update you as we get more information. Thanks all..

We return today! Vegas was great but not profitable so I have to reopen. Under protest. It will take less than 2 minutes to get back to grumpy. Counting down the days until the July shutdown. Let's do this!!

We are open today and tomorrow. After that, it's time for a stress reducing, homicide prevention activity known as a vacation. Closed Wednesday March 11th, reopening on Thursday March 19th. I will be spending all $68 of my vacation money trying to win a mega power lotto thing so I don't have to return. 1 in 295 million!!
See you when we return. Thank you.
