Popular Japanese restaurant making a comeback in Belmont
BELMONT, N.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — A Belmont restaurant that closed earlier this year is making a resurrection.
Sake Express announced Monday that it will return to the city June 1, but in a different location. Owners said the casual Japanese eatery will operate temporarily from the former Estia's Kouzina location on North Main Street until they find a permanent home.
Sake Express closed its location on Park Street in January; a Chase Bank branch is slated to take over the building.
'Thank you a ton for the love, loyalty and support. We cannot wait to serve you again, Belmont!' owners said in a Facebook post.
Sake also has a Gastonia location that's on its second life after a fire destroyed the building.
