Brian Smith Addresses City Council About Vision of Monticello with Alcohol Availability – Video
May 29th, 2024 byWhen we started our small restaurant we were greeted with excitement and encouragement. But just like anything else, the new does wear off after a bit.
We were new at this so we knew we would make mistakes along the way. We started looking at our competitors in town and out of town.
We quickly realized those that served alcohol seemed to not be struggling as much as others.
On invite night back in November one of the poll questions was, “Would you be opposed to responsible sales of alcohol on premises?” Responsible being the key word.
The overwhelming majority said yes. When it became clear the new had worn off a bit, we decided to pursue our alcohol permit.
Let me make this point very clear. We are not a bar. We still want to be a family restaurant for people to bring their kids. If we get this permit, we will not encourage nor allow individuals to drink in excess.
We are simply a restaurant trying to survive, serve good food, and if a guest so desires an occasional beer, wine, or cocktail with a meal then we want to provide them with that option.
We just want to continue to serve the citizens of our great community for years to come.
