Sorry, its not here in Nashville but if you’re wanting to get out of town(while CMAFest is here or any other time)it might be worth a trip to just outside of Denver. I went there on my senior class trip and had a blast. People started to hear about it when in Season 7 of South Park, Cartman snuck his way in after making Butters think the world was ending. Anywho, its a real place. It like a lot of restaurants hit very hard times and then closed in 2020. New Owners and Colorado natives Trey Parker and Matt Stone bought it. From the NY Times:
The place was already in disrepair, crumbling from deferred maintenance, rife with electrical hazards, the ventilation systems coated with grease and the carpet encrusted into something like concrete. The jokes about the food had earned it the nickname Casa NoEata. Still, its passing was mourned. But in the coming weeks, the enormous casita will reopen with new owners: Mr. Parker and Mr. Stone, both native Coloradans, who have spent upward of $40 million to tear it down, rebuild it and, they joke, to keep everything the same, except now sanitary.“It doesn’t stink like chlorine anymore,” Mr. Stone said in an interview in late May, during the final, frantic stretch to reopen. “We could have rebuilt this twice as big, for half as much money, but we spent so much restoring it, like a piece of art.”
Glad to see a piece of history(and others childhood) gets a new lease on life. Ahhh, but man think about what kind of sweet condo that bachelorettes could have “wooo-ed” from could have been built there. You can see more on Twitter @CasaBonita
