Does anyone know if La Plancha is still doing the Saturday night Prime Rib dinner? If they are, do you know what the cost is? Thanks

For the summer/off season, they are doing Saturday and Sunday brunch, no dinner. A little birdie told me that they are working on possibly making a move. It would be very exciting!!! Hopefully I will have some news to share soon.

Wow. That would be HUGE!! If they had a view to go along with their food they would really have it all.

I'm so curious where they are going. I vote for the old Paridiso location. It would be perfect for them.

I believe that is correct. Facebook says they are moving to Mongoose Junction.

Yup, old Paradiso spot! They are going to be fantastic there!!!!! This is a big new spot, which means they are going to have to hire staff. They are a very solid restaurant with probably one of the worst locations on island right now....I'm sooo excited to see them move to such a prime location. I wish them all of the best and can't wait to see them spread their wings over in Mongoose Junction.

Paradiso used to be my favorite place to go way back when. But with all of the change and they've been plagued with over the past many years, I haven't been in a very long time. I am thrilled to see Johnathan, Mike, and Jason move in and I will be one of their first customers for sure!

Best of luck to them!

The only reason we never tried their restaurant is the location. I just couldn't bring myself to eat in a shopping mall, too much like home.

We will definately stop by next time we are on STJ.

That's great news! Can't wait to eat there in October no matter what location they are in.

I have to agree the prior location was not good. We did dine there once but I'm not 100% sure I'd run back to that location. It's a testament to the restaurant however, that they have done so well in that location. I think the new place will only mean great things for them. I look forward to visiting the new location! Sooner rather than later ;)
