Once upon a time within the land of Moorestown, New Jersey, there stood a Tex-Mex restaurant by the title of Don Pablo’s.
It closed in 2018. Then a yr later, that complete chain folded. The last one working within the United States was in Deptford, New Jersey, and it quietly closed on June 23, 2019.
So that house in Moorestown occupied by Don Pablo’s till 2018 has sat vacant ever since. Through the lengthy pandemic, not a very good time for any restaurant to open, it sat ready for brand spanking new life.
That new life is lastly coming.

Some of the menu choices at Lazy Dog. (https://www.fb.com/LazyDogRestaurants_)
Lazy Dog locations are designed to look, and feel, like some Wyoming lodgea Rocky Mountain trip, with furnishings and paintings a rancher and cowboy might admire. Very pleasant, comfy and comfy.
If the meals can also be pretty much as good as I’ve heard you might not wish to depart! Their menu makes an attempt “comfort food with a twist” with dishes like BBQ bison and even spaghetti and ‘beetballs’ (vegetarian meatballs).
Their five-cheese grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough bread sounds superb as does their pot roast beef dip with au jus. Take a look at the website and also you’ll see it’s very kid-friendly but in addition has a full bar with to-die-for drinks.
This would be the first Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar location within the state and it’ll boast greater than 9,000 sq. toes accommodating 190 indoor company. But there may even be room for 60 extra outside company with a patio and a hearth pit.
Also, how enjoyable is it that they’ll be promoting scrumptious frozen take-home choices which can be packaged identical to the old retro TV dinners? People are going to like this place.
Look for it subsequent yr in Moorestown on Nixon Drive.
