Restraining Order for Double D Restaurant

TYLER – The Double D Restaurant proposed for Tyler is on hold pending the outcome of a hearing on a restraining order issued on the project on Friday. Workmen have been remodeling the old El Chico Restaurant for the Double D. What has caused some citizen protests is the location of the building; across the loop from Robert E Lee High School and in the same parking lot with Toys R Us. And it features waitresses in skimpy costumes. Toys R Us sought and got the temporary restraining order against the restaurant in the 114th District Court of Judge Christi Kennedy. The restaurant’s owners are ordered to stop renovation work, remove signs and not employ people wearing what the judge called “scanty attire.” A hearing on the restraining order has been scheduled for August 11th.
