Grilled will soon open in a new location in Midtown, eight months since the restaurant closed its original location in Salemtown following the deadly Easter Sunday shooting.
Flavor 90s, the nostalgia-themed Music Row bar, announced earlier this month that it is partnering with Roasted to create a “dining and entertainment space” on Demonbreun Street. The two concepts will merge, combining Roasted’s all-day brunch into Flavor 90s’ nightlife entertainment.
Grilled owner Ericka Fizer, who was one of the seven injured in the shooting, took to social media to share the news.
After his restaurant closed earlier this year, he said he was uncertain about his future in Nashville’s hospitality industry. In the summer, he began delivering takeout orders available at the Midtown Foods food hall and maintained his culinary duties.
With continued community support, Fizer made the decision in October to reopen his sit-down restaurant after what he called a “spiritual fast.”
“For 226 days, I have been built, physically, mentally and emotionally. For 226 days, y’all prayed for me, my employees and my business,” Fizer said in a video sent to social media. “Now, 226 days later, we’re back.”
Located at 1526 Demonbreun St., the new Grilled restaurant will be open from 10 am to 10 pm Wednesday and Thursday, 10 am to 12 am Friday and Saturday and 10 am to 8 pm Sunday.
The grand opening is Sunday, November 24.
Grilled’s social media pages ensure that customers can expect the same food they know and love from the Salemtown location in Midtown. The menu includes Bananas Foster pancakes, chicken and waffles, bacon, cheddar and swiss burgers, Cajun butter shrimp and salmon croquettes.
