The former Sushi Dojo space is now for lease at 110 First Ave. between Sixth Street and Seventh Street.
We don't know the exact timing of the recent closure. The Sushi Dojo website simply says, "We're Closed. Thank you for your support since 2013." Its Instagram account doesn't mention a closing.
The restaurant, from chef David Bouhadana, received acclaim during its early days here. However, in the fall of 2015, ownership let go of its chef for his reportedly "unprofessional" handling of DOH codes and conduct.
The fine-dining allure of Sushi Dojo changed over time, and recent Instagram posts show deals for "anti inflation omasake" — 10 pieces for $45.
According to the listing for the fully vented space, the rent is $15,000 monthly.
Well, at that rent, there won't be a return of a homey polish restaurant

I've been looking for a spot to open my cannabis and ozempic dispensary.
