Sid-Mar's to Reopen Tuesday
Posted by Ian McNulty on Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 9:18 PM
- Nearly four and a half years after Hurricane Katrina wrecked their original Bucktown location, the family owners of Sid-Mar's Restaurant & Bar plan to reopen tomorrow, Jan. 19, at a new Metairie address (3322 N. Turnbull Dr., 831-9541).
- The Burgess family opened Sid-Mar's in 1967 next to the old Bucktown fishing docks on a spot with an unimpeded view of the lake. The Army Corps of Engineers took over that property as part of its flood control plans following Katrina.
- The new location is strikingly different, and well inland. It's a restaurant space that was most recently home to the Korean barbecue restaurant Gimchi. It's just off Veterans Memorial Boulevard.
- While you won't find the lake views and breezes that characterized the Bucktown original, the new Sid-Mar's menu of po-boys, seafood platters and seasonal boiled seafood remains the same, right down to the Sid-Mar's special, a hot sausage po-boy with roast beef gravy and cheese.
- Sid-Mar's will serve lunch and dinner, Tuesday through Sunday.
