A celebrity hotspot in a Trump hotel is reportedly closing after 'the Kardashians stopped coming' and business plummeted - here's what it's like to eat there
Koi, a chain of upscale sushi restaurants, is shuttering its location in Trump Soho in mid-June, New York Magazine's Chris Crowley reported. Currently, the restaurant is serving a limited menu of about 30 to 40% of what Koi typically carries.
"Before Trump won we were doing great. There were a lot of people we had, our regulars, who'd go to the hotel but are not affiliated with Trump," Jonathan Grullon, a busser and host at the restaurant, told GrubStreet. "And they were saying if he wins, we are not coming here anymore."
Another restaurant worker told GrubStreet that, following the election, "the Kardashians stopped coming" - and businesses plummeted. While Suzanne Chou, Koi Group's general counsel, "declined to speculate" why business declined, she said that "obviously since the election it's gone down."
For those who aren't going to be able to make it to the Trump Soho's Koi before it closes for good, here's what it's like to visit the restaurant.
