CityWalk Hollywood General Discussion

[Disneyhead]

That makes sense on a lot of levels.

Hard Rock is such a splendid idea realized with mind numbingly mediocre execution. It's basically an adult Rainforest Cafe.

Americans like mid level comfort food.

Red Oven makes no sense. We just got Blaze.

 

[Viator]

The only way I can see RO, is if it's replacing Pizza Hut/KFC Express.

Toothsome, on the other hand..:whistle:

 

[Rideguy70]

I can imagine Toothsome going at Hard Rock, but Red Oven? Even if it is coming (which I agree with Chris, seems very unlikely with Blaze there), where would it even go?

And I won't get excited about Toothsome coming until I hear it from the horse's mouth. I do feel it's more or less inevitable, it's just a matter of when and where.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

After the success of Orlando with Toothsome, no doubt it's coming. On another note, it seems as if NBC Sports Grill isn't doing as good as they thought and Hollywood will not be receiving one?

Was at the park today, and grabbed a bite to eat at Ludo Bird. There were two USH team members asking people to take detailed iPad surveys that were essentially asking if we were happy with the service and food from Ludo Bird. They were out there for at least 3 hours. Wonder if this means Ludo Bird's days are numbered?

 

[ush.hacker]

I hope so, the food is alright and service always takes forever.

So I heard some props from Jurassic Park are at the USH Citywalk theater. Anyone seen them yet?

DP, from California Informer.


Seems like we have another Blaze situation, as this is actually from Disney Springs already.

Sofar, I like the new look of Johnny Rockets. Looks much more of a sleek and open air design, that I do like.

And as for Sublime, I haven't heard much about the Orlando location, so I can't judge here.

EDIT: Sounds like development may be finally commencing on Saddle Ranch as soon as tonight.

 

[SnideRemarksDept]

I'll be the first to admit that it's not a great picture, but it looks like California Informer was more on it than they thought. Johnny Rockets is open for guests post-remodel.

From California Informer, Sephora will be opening on April 20th.

I haven’t been to Universal Hollywood, but that and Orlando’s Citywalk could really use a good arcade.

I just don’t understand how a cosmetics and skin care shop fits into a Citywalk. Is it a California lifestyle kind of thing?

You can ask the same thing to Disney Springs.

 

[Teebin]

Hmm... I can only imagine that it is a mostly female thing that I can’t wrap my head around. But even then…

To be fair, Universal Hollywood Citywalk has a lot of variety for retail, including the likes of Guess; Things from Another World (A large Comic Book shop right next to the Universal Cinemas/Five Towers esplanade); Shoe Palace; ANGL; a Lush like place now called Nectar Bath Treets (which is HQ'ed in Vegas); and quite a few others.

To say this, and while it may be odd, I would've loved if Universal collaborated with VOID before that Disney deal began.

Universal Citywalk Hollywood actually did have something like that before, but closed down for Margaritaville.
