No matter what is said at the outset, if the business does not succeed on its core offerings alone the temptation is strong to juice up the "entertainment," as in Diva's failed cocktail lounge (closed after a shooting ), the failed Aquarium (preceded by a failed sports bar and failed Tallulah's), the Surrey Room, and going way back, the Shamrock. The Highland Avenue outskirts present an especially challenging food venue-- even the now successful Five Horses, which is much closer in to the Square, is the fourth establishment on that site since Yee's Village. At the same time, other borderland spots have combined business success with good neighborhood relations: Redbones, Posto (the fourth try on that spot since Carberry's owner moved out of the country), Flatbread.
