Discussion Summary:
This forum discussion revolves around the takeover of J Christopher's in Kingwood by new owners who plan to turn it into J Christopher's Italian Bistro. The previous owners were criticized for their lack of experience in the restaurant business and for not keeping the restaurant clean. The new owners are the same people who own Chimichurri's, another restaurant in Kingwood. Some people are optimistic about the new ownership, while others are skeptical. They hope that the new owners will offer a gluten-free option and will bring back the plate lunch special. Also, some people are concerned about the merchant card fee that some restaurants pass on to customers. However, one of the owners confirmed that they do not pass the fee on to the customers. The new owners plan to keep some of the old favorites while also adding new flavors and wines to the menu. They also plan to honor J Christopher's gift cards.
@RedSox1SheHer : Merchant card fees are 100% deductible for the merchant on their annual tax return. Those fees are a cost of doing business and that is how a merchant recoups that cost, not by passing it along to the customer.
