Update: Luscher’s Red Hots did more business in three hours yesterday than in a single day for nearly six months. Due to the fact that they’ve been cleaned out of food, the restaurant will close on Sunday instead of Tuesday. R.I.P. Uncle Herky.
Sad news from Deep Ellum today. Brian Luscher is pulling the plug on his famous Luscher’s Red Hots. “We gave it our best shot,” Luscher says. “I couldn’t be more thankful for the help and support of our family and friends and Red Hot fans our landlord Scott Rohrman and 42 Real Estate. They did everything they could to set us up for success. But it just wasn’t in the cards. ” What’s next? “We’ll see what the restaurant gods have in store for us.”
Get down there before Tuesday and give them a hell of a send-off.
