Rosell’s, 7649 E. U.S. 30, Pierceton, was approved at the local level for a beer, wine and liquor license.
The license still has to be approved at the state level.
Owner Gustavo Munoz Jr. said his restaurant isn’t open yet as renovations to the place are still being made.
Pie-Eyed Petey’s moved a step closer toward a second location Thursday.
Owner Barbara Hamer was granted a transfer of ownership of the license at what was formerly Lil’s Anchor Bar, 101 W. Main St., Syracuse.
Hamer and her husband, Roy, purchased the building and are currently turning it into Pie-Eyed Petey’s Pelican Bay.
Hamer said her staff has been working hard to get the place ready but couldn’t give a solid date as to when it would open.
Because Pie-Eyed Petey’s was a transfer of ownership and not a new permit, the restaurant can order alcohol and open immediately, according to excise officer April Tackett.
Cerulean, Winona Lake, was allowed to renew its beer and wine license after a violation.
The violation occurred Feb. 4, 2010, around the time excise officers were doing a sweep of the area.
According to Cerulean owner Caleb France, a server gave an underage male a beer without carding him. That server is no longer employed at Cerulean.
Since then, France said, his wife and co-owner, Courtney, has become a certified trainer.
Servers also are required to take a test before being allowed on the floor. Cerulean employs between 20 and 30 servers.
Cerulean also paid a $500 fine.
It was the restaurant’s first offense in the six years its been opened.
Pizza King, Ind. 15S, Silver Lake, and Freedom Express #4, Ind. 13N, North Webster, were both renewed their licenses with no violations.[[In-content Ad]]Winona Lake restaurants Cerulean and Boathouse may be able to start serving liquor at their locations depending on the three votes of the Kosciusko County Alcoholic Beverage Commission.
They are on the commission’s July agenda.
The meeting will take place July 7 at 1 p.m. in the old courtroom at the Kosciusko County Courthouse.
The restaurants were allowed to proceed with obtaining a three-way alcohol license after the Winona Lake Town Council approved an enabling ordinance.
If the local beverage commission approves the applications, it will then move to the state level.
Board members Elim Smith, Gordon Vanator and Kenneth Johnson will hear from representatives from both Boathouse and Cerulean.
Remonstrators will be heard if present during the meeting.
