I am really bummed to hear this. It is one of my favorite restaurants and their food is perfect for summertime. I like it much better than La Duni and hope they manage to re-open as soon as possible.
Insurance can cover repairs, but what’s really bad is that you miss out on the $$$ from the summer months. I’m rooting for them to come back and glad to know that they will rebuild.
