After a long battle, Juliet Supper Club surrenders from their fight to stay open after the landlord filed a complaint for eviction. The club has been closed for the past three weeks due to many disreputable acts that have taken place in the club. The celebrity hot-spot opened back in 2009 and since then has entertained various celebrity types.
The club was shut down for violating the city's ban against smoking for a week, but the landlord finally decided enough was enough when two party-goers turned up dead.
Their landlord, Edison Properties, had a limitation in the lease that stated the space could not be used as a nightclub, which it accuses Juliet is. However, the establishment claims that it is just a supper club. After the owner gave a notice to fix the lease violation, Juliet filed a lawsuit in the New York State Supreme Court.
The fight has been an on-going battle since November, until now. According to The Real Deal, Juliet's lawyers decided to bow out from the suit to cease eviction proceedings. Their only reported evidence was that they had an extensive menu proving that they were a valid restaurant.
Will the supper club move to a different location? We guess the after-party for the Super Bowl will have to take place elsewhere because there is no longer any sign of Juliet, even their Facebook and Twitter accounts have been deleted.
