According to a message posted to the restaurant's Facebook page, its final day in business was April 15:

As we celebrate our 30th year in business, we would like to thank you for allowing us to serve you and be a part of your family. After 3 decades of service to our community we have decided to pass on this beautiful location to the next generation of entrepreneurs. 

We will close our doors after this coming weekend and it is our sincere hope that you welcome the new business here with the same love and loyalty you've honored us with.
