Venues: 398We opened EL Alamo Palermo last Thursday night
Greetings everyone,
We opened EL Alamo Palermo last Thursday night, just 48 days after we took possession of the property, and just 14 days after the idiot Exon stood in the middle of the construction project and proclaimed "You won't be open until mid February".
Personally, I think that completely remodeling a 4,000 SF facility, including a new kitchen, a handicapped bathroom, a 12 meter long bar, all new electrical and redecorating everything in less than 7 weeks was a commendable achievement.
Anyway, the place looks great, and we opened to a full house.
I'd like to invite everyone to come by and check the place out.
El Alamo Palermo
Ave Cordoba 5267
------------------------------
Open 4 pm to 4 am daily
It's in Palermo Viejo, near the corner of Godoy Cruz.
FYI, of course we're closed on the 24th and the 25th for Christmas.
Thanks,
Jackson
FYI, next week we start work on the rooftop terrace, which will include a covered bar, tables with umbrellas, lots of plants and of course HDTV for the sports enthusiasts.

El Alamo's new 2nd location is on Cordoba just a couple of blocks from Juan B Justo. I'm deliberately withholding the address until we're ready for the public.
We have not yet established an opening date, but I expect that it will be sometime on or immediately after January 1st.
The new 2nd location will be ideal for watching college and pro football, with five 55" HDTVs throughout the bar room, each independently capable of receiving all the games from the USA.
We're also planning a live music venue on the 2nd floor, and an outdoor bar with another TV on the rooftop terrace.
Stay tuned.
Thanks,
Jackson

I have no financial interest in the original Alamo, but I have known all the parties involved in the business and the building for years.
I can tell you categorically that the owners of El Alamo have never held a "total disregard for residents in a nearby apartment". In fact, they have taken a number of measures over the years in direct response to the neighbor concerns, said measures specifically intended to mitigate the impact of their operation on the neighborhood, including curtailing the bar's hours of operation, blocking off the exterior windows to reduce street gawkers, posting security guards outside the building, and even paying to install new double paned windows in many of the adjacent neighbor's windows to curtail the effects of the street noise.
Thanks,
Jackson

Yes, you guys are right. If a place is good, it does not matter if one or two guys speak bad about it.
It is not about a free dinner. If I co-own a bar, I would just want to read only and only good things written about it on the net prior its opening especially on my own website. Just my 2 cents. And yes, Jackson is a dear friend of mine.

They don't give a shit what we old farts have to say!
Jax may be a partner in the new Alamo, but I am sure he won't be overly concerned about you honestly exercising your freedom of speech on this topic.

Posts: 1099Out of respect for the owner of this forum and now a joint owner of Alamo bar 2, lets not talk anything negative about Alamo bar on a public forum.
Lets be in support and have only good things to say about it. Remember, lot of people read this forum as guests.

Posts: 3510Anybody who lives in smack dab downtown ANY major world class city and expects peace and quiet is pretty much fucked. Of course a US perspective would be the bar is overserving a lot of these people. Hence in the US you never see the "drown nights" that can lead to this behavior. I personally think the bar's responsibility ends when the patron hits the sidewalk but if you continually piss off the neighbors, you might have problems with your license. In the US those might be serious problems but in BA would just increase the coima and hence be merely another overhead expense. This Dallas Cowboy who killed his teammate, they are chasing down the bars where they drank right now. My state, fortunately, has what is known as "dramshop laws" so the bars could not get sued in this type of situation. You wonder how many of those young sots spilling out of El Alamo at closing then proceed to drive. Probably not too many, but for sure some.
