According to the West Side Spirit, popular UWS chow joint Docks Oyster Bar, the two-decades-old seafood
restaurant, closed unexpectedly on Feb. 25. Seems they may have succumbed to high rent and bad economic times—or it's a good excuse to shut down.
Stewart Rosen, co-owner over at the East Side Docks restaurant told WSS he has been "inundated with calls from customers inquiring about the closure of the West Side Docks. 'We’ve had a lot of calls from loyal customers upset about it,' Rosen said."
Council Member Gale Brewer even chimed in: “It was like a watering hole,” Brewer said. “Some people went three times a week.”
Aw shucks, one more restaurant down. How many more to go?
