Yakiniku JuJu goes up in flames

While we had a great time at Yakiniku Juju and brought many friends here, this evening we were shocked to find that it was mysteriously closed. We tried calling to see if we could get an answer but only got a random busy signal. Finally a notice on the door of the whole “family house” that this place was in caught my eye. It was telling inspectors to stop coming here because the restaurant that was here closed due to water damage after the fire.
…wait. FIRE!?
This is serious business. Why wasn’t this reported anywhere? I googled everywhere I could to find any information on a fire and there was nothing listed. There was no sign of this place even moving or re-opening somewhere else. Is this the end of my favorite yakiniku place?
And so with a heavy heart JP and I went to Yakiniku West which kinda sucks now because they’ve raised all their prices by at least $1/item (although it’s not directly their fault they had to do this.) In addition they’ve added huge dividers inside to make it more private and cozy I guess.
If anyone has news or any articles on this please link! I’m really having a hard time finding any information on this incident. ![]()

Kirche and Colbert were having a romantic dinner there until an accident happened.
Wonder how the building tasted when it was done?
An apartment upstairs had a fire. Since then Yakiniku Juju has been renovating for minor cosmetic fix. They should re-open in a month or so. Looking forward to…
