No restaurant has operated in that space since Bevy closed in January. It's even technically still called Bevy, but it was redone for event usage and was ready in March.

The point is that there were no renovations being done as of last week, therefore calling into question the accuracy of the website. Especially with the name issue.

If they want to throw in a couple dining tables and call it good (and close it again after a few weeks b/c it's still going to be losing money)? Sure. For a new concept? No, not going to happen in two months.
