Here's an amazing turn-around in Deep Ellum. In the space that housed one of the many dance clubs that used to draw big crowds into Deep Ellum a new concept has been born. The old club one owners have converted the space at 3025 main into a restaurant....game space...sports bar.....meeting place...you name it. They have large tables where a group could have a breakfast or lunch meeting and small tables where a couple could sit and have a quiet conversation and make plans for life. With big screen TV's and free Wi-fi - it is a great place to wait out rush hour. The sign out front advertises that it is the home of the ""Chrisanni"" - my curiousity got the best of me....I had to have one. This is an extraordinary grilled panini sandwich that was more than I could finish. Lots of meat and cheese, spices and vegies. They have a tasty selection of coffees and a breakfast items too - even biscuts and sausage gravy - or so I was told. Oh yes, and they really do sell a wonderful pink lemonade that I personally enjoyed with the panini...Chrisanni. They were busy the afternoon I was in setting up for a sweet sixteen party that was scheduled for that evening, The young man behind the counter told me that they normally reserve Sundays for private parties - bachellorette, receptions, etc, but they are making every effort to be of service to the Deep Ellum community and to others who might be looking for something out of the ordinary. This is a truely unique concept - I think it will do very well if they can keep up the friendly service.
Pros: Big screen TV's and Free Wi-Fi, Friendly Service
Cons: Not obvious what Excuses is - you have to venture in
