Their IG post says it’s closed and infers some kind of drama happening. Anyone know what happened?
The post says: ” I will not let anyone I mean anyone mess with my families business. It sucks it has to end like this but We are not sell outs. I gave yall warning after warning and yall didn’t respect my family. I’m gonna honor my family as they should be honored. It was a fun ride while it lasted. I take a great lesson from. This. DONT TRUST NOBODY 💯 WE ARE NO LONGER PART OF MONTEREY PARK I APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE BUT I RATHER BE BROKE THAN FAKE THE FUNK.”

Damn, I was planning on swinging by for a plate sometime this week. I guess I’ll be heading to the Boyle Heights location instead in the meantime
Damn I wonder
Mo Money Mo Problems
So (I’m GUESSSING), restaurant brought in a capital partner cause they didn’t have enough to open a second b&m, the build-out took way too long, cost way more than expected by new partner. Partner wants to recoup their cost, but biz has been super slow due to bad location (that strip of road is cursed and no-man’s land), so now partner wants more percentage of profit, and or stopped paying licensing fees to the brand. Happens all the time, let’s not be so dramatic about it Momo.
Boy, that sucked. Parking was so easy there.
