New Japanese Restaurant Seeks to Replace Old Japanese Restaurant

A new Japanese restaurant is set to replace another Japanese restaurant that is in the process of moving up the block. The location, 1608 Wisconsin, was the home of Oki Bowl, which is taking over the old Jaco Taco space. The new restaurant will be called Koryouri Urara, according to a new liquor license application.

Here is how the application describes the new restaurant:

NATURE OF OPERATION
New Class “C” Restaurant with a Seat Capacity of 55, and Total Occupancy Load of 85, and a
Summer Garden with 25 Seats.

HOURS OF OPERATION AND HOURS OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SALES,
SERVICE AND CONSUMPTION
Sunday through Saturday 11am – 12am

(The application itself does not describe itself as Japanese but this generally reliable source does. And from Google Translate, I believe the name of the restaurant translate from Japanese to something like “Beautiful Small Dishes”)

This establishment is in my SMD, and so I will take the lead from the ANC in handling it. I do not anticipate any major issues, so I hope they can open soon!
