When the Southdale Center fully reopens up again after a total renovation and facelift in the fall of 2013, there will be 14 new businesses inside the world's first indoor shopping center.
Shortly after PBS featured the mall as one of the 'Ten Buildings that Changed America," the historic shopping hub announced four new restaurants and the following 10 stores will soon be added to the roster of retailers:
- Journey's
- Lucky
- Madewell
- Maurce's
- Soma Intimates
- Sephora
- Wet Seal
- White House/Black Market
- Things Remembered
- Game by James
The White House/Black Market store has already opened, and Soma is expected to open on Aug. 19.
New restaurants include:
- Qdoba Mexican Grill will open in the dining pavilion in December.
- Rojo Mexican Grill -- a contemporary restaurant and bar with over 75 types of tequila -- will open in mid-2013
- Subway Café will open in November, and will offer baked goods, coffee and tea as well as sandwiches.
- Wasabi Modern Japanese Cuisine will open near the Guest Services area in the fall of 2013, and will offer traditional Japanese dishes as well as Latin-fusion of classic dishes.
Diary Queen, Panda Express, and Teriyaki Japan will open in the dining pavilion in November, and Great Steak will move there from the current court as well.
