Popular 905 Juniper Hot Spots Unexpectedly Close Their Doors
Midtown residents where shocked to find out that Lupe Taqueria and Beleza Lounge, the brainchildren of Riccardo Ullio, the mastermind behind the successful Sotto Sotto and Friti restaurant concepts, shut their doors this past Saturday, May 22.
In an effort to put their best foot forward, Ullio threw a grand closing party. We can only imagine how bittersweet that must have been for Ullio and the people who admired what he tried to bring to Midtown.
Rumor and speculation abound but no one truly knows why they closed. However, what now, atlanta? has cobbled together a variety of sources to give you this possible perspective: Lupe was well on its way to being profitable but Beleza never recovered even after their re-conception this past April. The bank who owned the mortgages, seeing an impossible situation, pulled the plug on the enterprises.
Stay tuned for more information, as we try to reach the principles in this developing story.
