Signage alert: L&L Hawaiian Barbeque and Tōka Chef Kitchen on Allen Street

Signage went up last week for two new dining options on Allen Street just south of Houston. 

Tōka Chef Kitchen is coming soon to 205 Allen St., a long-vacant space whose last full-time tenant was Domino's. We don't know anything about Tōka Chef Kitchen at the moment. 

Meanwhile, Meat + Bread closed next door on Sept. 24 ... after a January 2021 debut. 

L&L Hawaiian Barbeque, specializing in plate lunches, is the new tenant...
The business started 50-plus years ago in Hawaii. It expanded stateside in 1999 and continues to franchise.
 
This is the first latest Manhattan outpost (see the comments about a previous Fulton Street location), and one is coming to Bushwick, too.

    You mean the first modern-day Manhattan L&L? There was a location on Fulton Street in the Financial District that opened in 2004 and closed in 2013. I went a few times. It was widely talked about on Chowhound back then.
