After almost nine months the
Urbanite Bistro calls it quits. Always sad to see an indie restaurant go. Today I recieved an email from chef Frank Imabarlina saying that tonight, Saturday May 8 is the last night the Urbanite will be open. "I have been working tirelessly for the past week trying to do whatever I could to keep the Urbanite operating, right down to last night and this afternoon trying to alter this outcome," writes Barlina.
Shame. I liked how the restaurant took a chance on downtown and stocked great craft brews. Hopefully we'll see the Urbanite team again soon.

Too pricey for the kids at the Vagabond and too indie/sketchy next to that dirty food mart for the $$'ed crowds from the Arsht I guess.
Yeah I guess that's a theory. What does that mean for future restaurants trying to open up in that area?
It probably means wait until the area is a tad more developed before trying that location. They took a huge risk with that spot and unfortunately it didnt work out.
