JB Kitchen & Bar Closed for Renovations

We know how the story usually ends when restaurants say they're closed for renovations, but JB Kitchen & Bar -- which opened in February -- might really just be renovating. Calls to the restaurant went to a recording giving its hours of operation and a prompt to leave a message...

We know how the story usually ends when restaurants say they're closed for renovations, but JB Kitchen & Bar -- which opened in February -- might really just be renovating.

Calls to the restaurant went to a recording giving its hours of operation and a prompt to leave a message. The restaurant's Facebook page and Twitter feed show the same message from October 7: "We're closed for some brief renovations! Stay tuned..."

And a rep for the restaurant said it was indeed closed for some work. A reopening date is yet to be determined.

Stay tuned indeed.
