Plywood arrives for 131 Avenue A; new Cajun restaurant on the way?



Workers yesterday erected plywood around 131 Avenue A, the former 10 Degrees Bistro and Flea Market Cafe between St. Mark's Place and Ninth Street.

Back in December, CB3 OK'd a beer-wine license for the owners of Shoolbred's and Kingston Hall (and formerly Ninth Ward) on Second Avenue. The CB3 meeting notes refer to the new establishment as "a New Orleans Cajun restaurant." (Per the meeting notes, the applicants were seeking a full-liquor license; they also faced opposition from several nearby block associations.)

The space has been sitting dormant in recent months. There had reportedly been gas issues in the building, which ultimately led to the eviction/closure of next-door neighbors Nino's and Yoshi Sushi. Perhaps landlord Citi Urban has those gas issues resolved.

Team behind Shoolbred's and Ninth Ward vying for 10 Degrees Bistro space on Avenue A


[EVG photo from September]

Nic Ratner and Robert Morgan, owners of three establishments on Second Avenue — Shoolbred's, Ninth Ward and Kingston Hall — look to be expanding their reach to Avenue A.

According to public documents (PDF!) on file at the CB3 website, Ratner and Morgan are applying for a new liquor license for the former 10 Degrees Bistro and Flea Market Cafe space at 131 Avenue A.

There aren't many details, such as a proposed name and menu served, on the questionnaire filed ahead of Monday night's CB3 SLA committee meeting. The paperwork shows 8 tables good for 31 seats as well as an L-shaped, 15-foot bar. The proposed hours are Sunday-Thursday 1 p.m. to 2 a.m.; until 4 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.

As we first reported on Aug. 18, the landlord took legal possession of the restaurant between St. Mark's Place and East Ninth Street. A sign arrived the next day noting that 10 Degrees was closed for maintenance. They never reopened.

The proprietors of Ten Degrees Bar, which remains open around the corner on St. Mark's Place, took over operations of the Flea Market Cafe in March 2013 ... changing the name to 10 Degrees Bistro in December 2013.

The December CB3-SLA committee meeting is Monday night at 6:30 in the CB3 office, 59 E. Fourth St. between Second Avenue and the Bowery.

10 Degrees Bistro won't be reopening on Avenue A



The for lease sign arrived on the front door yesterday.



As we first reported on Aug. 18, the landlord took legal possession of the restaurant at 131 Avenue A between St. Mark's Place and East Ninth Street.

A sign arrived the next day noting that 10 Degrees was closed for maintenance…



Also on Aug. 19, 10 Degrees took to Facebook to explain the situation… renegotiating terms with the landlord…

10 Degrees Bistro now 'renegotiating terms with the landlord' on Avenue A



On Monday, the Marshal paid a visit to 10 Degrees Bistro at 131 Avenue A … noting that the landlord has taken legal possession of the restaurant between St. Mark's Place and East Ninth Street.

While that sign remains up on the closed-for-now bistro's front …



… there's a new sign explaining that 10 Degrees is closed for maintenance…



10 Degrees also took to Facebook yesterday to explain the situation…



So perhaps all this will be worked out soon enough… and they'll be one less vacant space along Avenue A.

Meanwhile, their sister property, 10 Degrees Bar, remains open around the corner on St. Mark's Place.

The Marshal seizes 10 Degrees Bistro on Avenue A



A reader sent along this photo from last night, showing that the landlord has taken legal possession of 10 Degrees Bistro at 131 Avenue A between St. Mark's Place and East Ninth Street.

There isn't any information available about the closure at the moment. This doesn't necessarily mean the end for the restaurant… but it's not a great sign either.
