That's all for M & J Asian Cuisine on 14th and B

Multiple readers shared the closing news on Tuesday about M & J Asian Cuisine (seen below in better days), a budget-friendly Chinese restaurant and sushi bar on the SE corner of 14th Street and Avenue B.

No word on why it closed. The restaurant arrived in the fall of 2014, so perhaps the lease was up... and how much longer can a prime corner like this continue with single- and two-level buildings.

Thanks to EVG reader Patrick for the top photo!

Workers put up the new signage Friday at the restaurant opening soon on the southeast corner of Avenue B and East 14th Street.

We don't know too much else about the new place (ownership, opening date, etc.) at the moment.

The previous tenant, AlphaBet Cafe, closed this past April 1.

As for that AlphaBet Cafe signage, workers stuffed it into bags on the curb.

Also, hat tip to EVG regular Crazy Eddie who passed along this news of the new tenant a few months back.
