Nice to have a local owner. Best of luck with getting the BBC back up and running!

This is great news. The restaurant will boost the vitality of Menlo Park's downtown, and I look forward to dining on the roof while enjoying great food, wine and views of the sun setting over the coastal range. Thanks for investing in our community, Rob.

That building used to house Bank of America back in the 1940's-50's.

Looking forward to the re-opening. This may turn out to be a favorite Menlo hotspot, especially with the rooftop patio.

Great, now I wish something would happen with the Menlo Hub and Su Hong. I can't believe the owners of Menlo Hub have the for sale sign up on the roof. I don't think anyone knows it's for sale.
