What ever happened to it.

I never got a chance to eat there. Was it that bad?

Also, what happened to 3 Chef's, Sunset Grille, Tom Weston's, Lamplighter, and Arthur Treacher's?

Why oh why did all of these fine eating establishments have to close down? What do we have now? Just a bunch of corporate owned bullshit.

Chops was a quality restaurant. Excellent chef, fabulous menu, terrific bar. They put a lot of money into creating a decor that attracted and entertained diners and drinkers.

What they lacked: A marketing plan. Unless you drove by it every day and decided to stop in after awhile, you probably never heard of Chops.

So less than a year in, it closed. What was not leased was sold at auction. It's empty now, waiting for the next culinary adventurer.

The Arthur Treacher guy and Fox News are opening a Gay Bar for "mentally challenged" featuring Mommy's Cooze shots and Cum sickles.

Supposedly the building is haunted.

An employee hung himself in the building many many restaurants ago - I read it somewhere

A fine-dining sports bar. NOT a good idea. Which is why it lasted eight months.

Did you actually set foot in this joint? It was a bar, albeit a nicer, modern style bar with goober selection, then a dining room with tables floating about and plain, empty, white walls.
What it lacked was ambience. Felt like you were in a fucking morgue!
