Salt filed for bankruptcy yesterday. Ian Froeb of the Riverfront Times reported the news earlier today, noting that in Salt’s petition, the restaurant claims debts of between $100,000 and $500,000.
Sauce contacted Matt Obermark, co-owner of Salt, who stated that despite filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, “There will be no change in operating hours. Same location,” he added. A couple weeks ago, Salt changed its hours of operation. The restaurant, located at 4356 Lindell Blvd., is now open seven days a week, including Sunday brunch but no Sunday dinner service.
Obermark declined to make further comments, directing inquiries to Danielle Suberi of law firm Desai Eggmann Mason. Suberi filed the petition on behalf of Salt’s corporate entity, American Larder LLC. The Scoop has thus far been unable to reach Suberi for comment. More as we learn it.
