During a public meeting on Monday, March 9, the Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission approved Site and Operational Plans for a new full-service restaurant. The new restaurant will be known as El Camino and occupy the existing 6,830 square foot building located at 9900 77th Street, former Famous Dave's Restaurant. Dino Katris requested approval on behalf of the Roots Hospitality Group. The restaurant will include an outdoor dining area and serve dishes that are a blend of Mexican, East Asian, and American cuisine.
The El Camino restaurant will be an upscale establishment that consists of fresh kitchen-cooked dining in an authentic Southern Californian atmosphere. The restaurant intends to be open from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., with supply delivery hours between 6:00 a.m. and noon. El Camino anticipates opening in April or May of 2020 and will employ 60 full-time and 30 part-time employees over two shifts.
The Roots Hospitality Group owns and operates three different restaurants: The Lucky star pub in Burlington, Wisconsin, La Fogata Mexican Grill, and Waterfront Warehouse, both located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The Roots Hospitality Group has a goal of creating unique dining experiences. Their experienced and responsive team is ready to tackle this new restaurant.
A Digital Security Imaging System (DSIS) for compliance with the Village’s security ordinance and related access easement was also approved as part of the site and operational plans.
