John Dory Closed, Hopes To Relocate

We're sorry to hear, via Eater, that the John Dory closed its doors over the weekend. Despite generally positive reviews (including ours), April Bloomfield and Ken Friedman's showstopping aquarium of a restaurant seemed ill-suited to the times and the neighborhood. Friedman claims they hope to relocate, while venturing nothing more as to where, when, or what will happen to those formidable fishtanks.

Overrated, overhyped........Food was heavyhanded.......With millions invested they never had a chance.

I ate here many times and the only thing that tasted good was the fish and chips. All of the other dishes had problematic tastes such as the uni butter, and the overly spicy fish soup that overpowered any chance of tasting the fish. Unfortunately, in the soups and pan roast, the fish was overcooked and tasteless. Undercooking was also a problem. Not a great loss........except for the fish and chips.
