Southland Savvy
Louie's Pizza has closed in Frankfort. |
The restaurant had a checkered history in its brief run. There were repeated management changes and, most recently, it was supposed to be part of Baja Italiana, a restaurant from Carol Stream that sells Italian and Mexican cuisine. Coupons announcing the merger, management change and announcing a new grand opening were delivered over the summer.
A manager at Baja Italiana said Friday that restaurant’s owner had acquired and then sold Louie’s.
Calls to the Frankfort location are answered by an automated system that asks you to leave a message because of the call volume.
On Friday afternoon, the restaurant was closed and there was a notice on the door from the Village of Frankfort that its water service had been disconnected for failure to pay a utility bill. The restaurant’s Facebook page also has been taken down.

New Lenox Restaurants Close
The Station House, which used to be the second location of the House of Hughes, closed last week at 201 E. Maple St. in New Lenox.
A resident said she saw workers removing furniture and other items from the building.
The restaurant was renamed after the House of Hughes closed its original location in Crestwood back in March.
Also closing recently in New Lenox was the original location of Lazy Dogz Burgers & Beef at 108 W. Illinois Highway. The fast food joint closed its Tinley Park location just about a year ago, which has since reopened as Diana’s Kitchen.
Bears Deal of the Weekend
Joe Daniel’s Neighborhood Eatery & Pub, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary at 12218 S. Harlem Ave. in Palos Heights with a bean bag tournament, prizes, entertainment and free barbecue on Saturday, offers a free halftime buffet during Bears games. The only catch is you have to be on hand before the start of the second quarter. There are drink specials, as well, including buckets of beer and a $5 bloody Mary bar. The doors open as soon as fans start showing up. For information, call 708-923-9902 or visit http://www.joedanielsbar.com/.
