From ‘Daily Report’: Prominent Perkins Road space to see seventh restaurant in eight years
If “location, location, location” is everything in real estate, then why has a highly visible space with ample off-street parking in a retail center on Perkins Road near the busy intersection of Essen Lane been six—and soon to be seven—different restaurants in the past eight years?
There’s no single reason.
But since Calendar’s closed its restaurant in the Beau de Chêne shopping center in 2010, the space that the comfort food chain occupied for several years has turned over multiple times.

First, it was home to a short-lived Mexican restaurant. Then, Frankie Marcello’s, which specialized in southern Italian cuisine, from 2012 to 2015; followed by Lasseigne’s American Grill, 2015 to 2017; Sake Sushi, 2017 to 2018; and, most recently, Sushi Poke, which lasted about two months.
There is now a banner outside the restaurant promoting “King Crab Juicy Seafood,” which promises to be “coming soon.”
