PHEW! FISH AND THE KNIFE IS BACK TO ITS USUAL ‘OPENING SOON’ STATUS 
After announcing just last week that it had given up all hope that the 3-and-a-half-year-long construction project on the corner of Westheimer and Stoney Brook Dr. would ever open its doors as a restaurant, the crack team behind the b4-u-eat newsletter declared yesterday that its loss of sushi faith was unwarranted: “Fish & The Knife mystery solved,” the latest email report reads. “The facebook page was removed because it was created by an employee who is no longer there. There were a lot of workers there today and the beautiful fish tank contains live fish now. The owner says they expect to open in 3 weeks.” [b4-u-eat; previously on Swamplot] Photo: Swamplot inbox

Hey brothers. What the hell is the deal with this place? My cousin stays in Briarmeadow and has been telling me about this place. I seen they work, then they disappear. Ole’ boy must have put in about 20 different cypress trees. Die, replace, die replace. I just don’t understand the business strategy. Can’t stop what’s coming I suppose. It ain’t all waiting on you. Stay safe brothers.

What’s really sad is the fact that it will more than likely fail when it opens. I just have a feeling.
I concur that it will close very soon. It’s the wrong location for a fancy restaurant, especially with a Club component, it’s too big so the debt service is enormous, they’re WAAAAY behind schedule so they already lost tons of money on interest carry and unrealized revenue. Plus I think the “Sushi restaurant as a hip joint” is a concept that is already played out and in a downward spiral.
