[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are closing after less than 2 years. Just saw the sign when I walked by. Worthy attempt to revive FH but ultimately doomed by the geriatric demographic. Sad, I was rooting for that place!

I’m sorry, but not surprised.  I live within walking distance — but, at least in my experience, they did nothing to reach out to nearby residents and even walking nearby, there was little to inform people that the food hall was open. Some of the options were odd: with “creative” menus that lacked familiar standards.  I’d love an Indian restaurant, or a Thai restaurant, or a Deli sandwich spot — but wasn’t thrilled with the high-ish prices and less usual options. My ideal would have been to order more familiar dishes, then return for the more unique options — but the menus and perhaps the kitchen spaces weren’t set up for that. The standouts IMO, were the Cuban spot and the barbecue place — which were among the first to leave.  I will be tracking down Supreme Barbeque’s other locations.

Two new spots opened fairly recently, including the excellent Claude Have Mercy.  I’m bummed that The Heights has closed, but also angry that in a neighborhood literally hungry for interesting food options, the management did nothing to promote the place.
