Weird Fish: "Under Old Management"

We've had a sort of love/hate relationship with Weird Fish.  Initially, we couldn't get enough of their food (and offshoot at Bender's, R.I.P.).  But then Bain Capital bought them out or something, the restaurant kept changing hands, the food became shittier and shittier and we stopped wasting our time.

Well, apparently it's time to give them another shot, because our buddy Jefferson ate their last night and it sounds like everything is back in order:

You'll remember Weird Fish started out super vegan-friendly. Waitress said they got a new owner who hired a new chef who brought in meat. Non-fish meat. The pescatarians and the vegans showed up to find all the vegan options gone from the menu. It was lame. I stopped eating there.

But the old owner took over again a few months ago.  They brought back all of the vegan options. My dinner last night was great. Battered tofu and chips with a vegan tarter sauce and vegan cheesecake.  They also had a vegan chorizo tostada on the menu and two kinds of vegan tacos.

The waitress said they wanted to put up a sign that said “Under Old Management.”

They brought back their vegan stuff at least a year ago now. Definitely try the red pepper Agua Fresca, it kicks ass!

YES I CAN CONFIRM THAT THIS IS LARGELY TRU. SMOKE DRO!
