Winking Lizard Moving to Copley This Spring

Plans call for the popular restaurant to replace the defunct Golden Corral in Copley.

It's almost time for the Winking Lizard to pack its bags and move into Copley's former Golden Corral. 

Plans call for the relocation to take place most likely in the first week of April, according to Winking Lizard manager Dave Florian.

Renovations to convert the defunct Golden Corral -- located at 79 Springside Dr. -- are ongoing and should wrap up by late March, said Florian.

The Beer Blog reports inadequate parking at the aging Fairlawn location was one of the driving motivations behind the move.

It's not yet clear what business will take over the Fairlawn location wedged along Ghent Road.
