Sweet T’s finally has an opening date
Ever since it was announced that Sweet T’s restaurant had chosen Windsor to be its new home following the 2017 fires which destroyed it’s Fountain Grove location, excitement has been at near fever pitch for the opening. At first they had a sign outside that proclaimed they’d be open the summer of 2018, but that came and went and the sign came down with no new one in its place.
However, Sweet T’s recently announced on its Facebook page that it finally has an official open date of March 7. Reservations will open March 5 on its website. The eatery is famous for its southern cuisine, including barbeque, hush puppies and Po’ Boys.
