CityWalk Hollywood General Discussion

[salismetho]

So some new permits came in for CityWalk:
Two are described as public eating, one of which seems to be taking the Mini Monsters unit (housed right next to the closed Production Central, could be that it's actually for that store), and the other not specifying a location.
The third is described as a fast-food quick-service takeout, and I'm really unsure about this, but it looks like it's going in the Things from Another World spot? Unless there's another venue around there to the right of the AMC I'm forgetting about
Anyways, thought I'd let you guys know!

Where is the link to find the permits for USH?

Can't say for sure, but last time I stopped by Citywalk, it looked like the Poke place has closed? Can anyone confirm?

 

[Rideguy70]

Couple of updates around Citywalk... seems like the Poke place has officially closed, it's no longer listed on the directory




Most interesting, this "Box OffIce" in the old American Express/Wizards/Jon Lovitz Comedy Club entrance... sort of looks like an additional VIP/Express satellite office. But the offering of different Citywalk dining is intriguing. I notice it's only Universally owned restaurants, so no Dongpo, Johnny Rockets, Bucca, etc. But it does include Margaritaville... is that owned by Universal?




Also, a glimpse of the "still-have-a-lot-of-work-to-do" interior of Toothsome. This was easily visible from the food court deck.

When are they ever going to do something with the Samba location? And what would everyone want to see there?

Perhaps these two thoughts are related? The old Samba spot (and I'm so old it's the "Cafe Tu-Tu-Tango" spot to me, lol) is to the right of AMC.

Is the old Hard Rock location big enough for toothsome? I would think they expand into the entire building including Samba.

The permit specifically mentioned the building Things from Another World is. Could be wrong, but I do think if it was to mention Samba; it'd mention Samba (though, what if they go for a quick-service sandwich place like Bread Box? Would definitely be interesting to see that taken from Orlando to USH's CW).

If that's the case, isn't there still technically that upstairs level above Margarittaville, where Jillian's used to be? AFAIK, it's never been developed since it closed, and I don't think Margarittaville is using it (aside from maybe storage).

Pulling the IU video, but Margaritaville does have a second floor! Atleast, a staircase leading towards one.

@salismetho might be able to better share, but the permit for Things points at the specific building code number.

I mean City walk should have 1/3 if not more cut from it and Businesses moved up stairs. Many stores are wasting space for what could be theme park land.

I hope Universal after they move the tram, is open to cutting citywalk foot print and using more of the second story because most of it is empty

Agree. CityWalk is too big for it’s own good and taking up valuable space. Seems like restaurants and shops are closing all the time because they’re expensive and people just spent an arm and a leg at the park/theater. DTD occasionally suffers from the same problem.

New box office in City Walk. Internet says its a sign of pass member reservations to come because of the signage.

I think it’s dining reservations, as all of the Universal owned restaurants are listed on the door

Yeah, I already posted about this on Monday. If you read the wording on the door, it's dining reservations for Universal owned properties. And Margaritaville. Or is that Universal owned? I asked about that, but no one has replied to it yet, so I don't know for sure.

Oops should have read the posts

Nintendo Switch Road Trip to take place this summer across the US

The Nintendo Switch Road Trip will have playable demos like Mario Strikers: Battle League, free swag, and more.

Nintendo in August will be back at city walk, not sure if they will have as many photo ops as Kibry...but free sag bags again im assuming

 

[Viator]

As found by @salismetho, permits are being presumably filed for Karl Strauss's place.

 

[tacalert]

M-41 was Karl Strauss' location. Time will tell.

 

[SailwiththeTide]

The current state of City walk is pretty sad. Hopefully they can add another good restaurant.
