back in april, i forecasted spinasse to destitution. but it looks like pike’s bar & grill wins the race and has closed up shop…already.
apparently the excellent digs of the former 1200 bistro – which closed unexpectedly in late 2007 – seems to prove it’s not all about location, location, location…as pb&g was amid real estate gold on pike/12th and didn’t clear six months of business.
while certain yelp reviews raved excellent service and cuisine, i couldn’t grasp what exactly pb&g was shooting for. was it a bar? was it a restaurant?
gross lighting and steep prices (by hill standards) left distaste with us, as cupcake noted in here we go again.
what would you like on pike/12th?

I’ve tried to reach the owners to get the scoop but no dice.
kudos on the attempt. there has been very little coverage of this, anyone know the last day they were open?
i can’t say for certain; but the last 3 or 4 weekends when i walked by there it’s been dark.
spinasse is delicious, they’re not going anywhere!
…my friend served martha stewart at spinasses the other night which is hilarious to me. apparently she loved it too.
super duper tip! any more dets you should let us know!
I still miss Sammie Sue’s, which used to be there.
I also thought their name (bar and grill) didn’t match the menu or the atmosphere or the prices. When I think of bar and grill, I think of the Six Arms menu… sandwiches and burgers.
