Vietnamese restaurant Lilly’s Café, located at 1813 Magazine St., cleared a hurdle on Tuesday when the City Planning Commission unanimously voted to recommend approval for another restaurant upriver at 3329 Magazine St.
According to plans filed with the city, the restaurant would offer 900 square feet of space with outdoor seating. There are also two apartments located near the rear of the property totaling nearly 2,200 square feet.
