Former Moonstruck Eatery for rent on Avenue A



The former diner space at 167 Avenue A is now for lease.

According to the listing at Eastern Consolidated, the asking rent is $150 per square foot... and the space between 10th Street and 11th Street is 3,680 square feet... (We heard that they are offering it for $35,000 a month. For real.)

The listing also notes that one of the neighbors is Isis Seafood. WTF?



There was talk of a fish market at 171 Avenue A some years ago.

Anyway.

Moonstruck Eatery closed in July after one year of business.

Moonstruck Eatery closes on Avenue A



That's it for the Moonstruck Eatery. The diner has called it a day at 167 Avenue A after one year here between 10th Street and 11th Street.

The space has been on the market since April, per a listing at LoopNet.

Four other locations of Moonstruck Eatery remain in the city. (The Avenue A address has already been scrubbed from the website.)

The previous tenant, Ethos Meze East Village from the same owners, lasted less than a year in business. (And before this, it was the world-famous Diablo Royale Este, which closed at the end of August 2012.)

I never tried the souped-up diner. Friends who dined here said it was all serviceable, but the decor was all wrong, part ski lodge, part homage to the Raven, the bar Karen Allen owned in "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

Moonstruck Eatery is now open on Avenue A



A reader passed along word that the restaurant opened this week at 167 Avenue A between East 10th Street and East 11th Street … as we've been noting, the owners of Moonstruck Diner were going back to a diner concept after trying Ethos Meze East Village in the space.

We haven't seen the menu ourselves… the reader said there was standard fare, such as omelets, sandwiches and burgers, among other items…

Another sign of the new Moonstruck Eatery on Avenue A



The conversion of the former Ethos Meze East Village continues at 167 Avenue A between East 10th Street and East 11th Street … the owners of Moonstruck Diner were said to be opening another diner concept here… we await to hear more about what this will entail… and we remain hopeful…
