According to an event posting on the Facebook site, Privus Lounge on Brighton Avenue will be shutting its doors on Sunday, May 2. Privus is affiliated with The Kells, a bar and nightclub next door to Privus which is going to be closing as well. [May 16 update: Just to confirm, Privus has closed.]
Privus Lounge has been known as a place to go for sushi, cocktails (including martinis and drinks with sake), and dancing. The menu at Privus also included tempura, teriyaki, shumai, and a particularly popular Korean fried bon chon chicken. According to an article in the Cambridge Chronicle and Wicked Local, this last dish will continue to be served at a new Korean restaurant in Harvard Square called Bull, a place whose co-owner has also been behind Privus Lounge.
The address for Privus Lounge was: Privus Lounge, 161 Brighton Avenue (just west of Harvard Avenue), Allston, MA 02134.
