Grand Lux Cafe closed in Park Meadows last week. According to the Park Meadows website, the mall (inside or out) still has Brio Tuscan Grille, California Pizza Kitchen, Champps, Cru - a Wine Bar, Earl's, La Sandia, P.F. Chang's, Red Robin, Thai Basil, White Chocolate Grill and two restaurant/pubs in Nordstrom -- as well as two pretzel stores.

That's in addition to the dining-hall lineup, which includes Ben & Jerry's, Cajun & Grill, Charley's Grilled Subs, Chick-fil-A, Dairy Queen/Orange Julius, Mrs. Fields, Panda Express, Renzios, Saj Mediterranean Grill, Sbarro, Squeeze, Starbucks, Subway and Wasabi Jane.

And there's more to come.

Says The Jeff:

Don't forget that Frank Bonanno is opening Bonanno Brothers Pizzeria within the next month or so, and it sounds fantastic. Saj in the food court is a great Middle Eastern quick-service place. It's a local two-store chain (there's one at Southglenn, too) that's infinitely better than Garbanzo. La Sandia is fine, but yeah, I'd be fine with it if everything else closed.
