On a related note, I also tried out that Dog House eatery located near the Lakewood Mall and had no idea Danny owned/ran that one. Looks like that went belly up too and for good reason; they’re food and service really sucked! As someone who has extended family who work in family owned restaurant business I can at least tell you that it’s no walk in the park when you’re getting started, but it looked like these guys watched too much reality TV “rehab” shows or something.

Additionally, I heard through a friend that the landlord for this Viking Way property has turned to the greedy side and has increased the rents for all his tenants by 50%. This leads me top believe that he intends to kick everyone out and sell his land, possibly to a mixed-use land developer. Gentrification may finally have made it’s way into the ‘burbs!
