Good to know.

What is the reasoning? Will anything come of the Ft. Wright location with a new biz, etc?

That Kyles Lane location has a terrible traffic pattern. The parking lot is a little small also. I think there is  more potential and more customer friendly at Orphanage Rd. property.

Was at the Kyles Ln. location on 6-2, food and service was good, but they are pricing their selves out of the market.

The cost of "fast food" has gone crazy. I paid something like $14 for my McDonald's food recently.

Wow and I agree, pricing is off the hook.

Yeah, If you needed to turn left out of there onto Dixie Highway, you might as well just eat your food in the car while waiting.

Good move for them to bottom of Highland there to take over the other Frisch's building.

From Google AI:

 

A brand new, retro-style Frisch's is opening locally at 494 Orphanage Road in Ft. Wright, Kentucky. This remodeled location features a sleek, retro-inspired design while still keeping the iconic Big Boy statue. 

The northern Kentucky region has seen a few key changes to recent Frisch's Big Boy locations: 

Ft. Wright (New Location): This newly revamped location off I-275 is currently gearing up for its grand opening and hiring for cooks, servers, and staff. 

Maysville (Reopening): The Frisch's on Market Square Drive is slated to reopen later under new ownership after undergoing building upgrades. 

Covington (Transition): The former Frisch's in Covington has been converted into a new Skyline Chili. 

If you are looking for current Frisch's spots that are operating and ready to serve, there are other established locations nearby, including Florence, Independence, and Cold Spring.

Drove past the Kyle’s Ln. location the other day.  They had the dumpsters in the parking lot and it looked like they were gutting the place.  I’m assuming the one on 3L is open or close to opening?

I think this is a recent picture of the 3L location in Fort Wright.

That pic is within the last couple days. I drove by Thursday and there is more work completed than Thursday night.

Was in Florence today and passed the old location on Dream Street. It is now, or soon to be, a Toku Revolving Sushi Bar restaurant.

Signage is up, but it didn't look to be in operation just yet.
