How could Lumiere's close down? I went a few weeks ago and dropped $500+ for 2 people! Insanely expensive and not really worth it (IMHO) ... but if the restaurant is making that kind of money per customer... I can't see how they couldn't survive...
The industry as a whole is suffering though.
I read that it is projected that 30 out of 100 restaurants will be closed before summer this year, and the ones that do survive will see at least a 20-30% plunge in sales, scary numbers.

But I wasn't the only person there 
It was actually 75% full of diners that night, and it was a Sunday. I would expect them to be full-house on Friday and Saturday with ballers just dropping loads all over the place |

Curious question from a non-resident: How are places like Kingyo and Sakkushi doing? Really loved those places.
