It looks like a new restaurant is coming to the Savin Hill section of Dorchester, and it will apparently be catering to a couple of different audiences.
According to a job post within the site, Van Shabu & Bar will be opening on Dorchester Avenue, with its location apparently being within walking distance of the Savin Hill T station on Savin Hill Avenue. Based on the post, the new dining spot will apparently be a combination shabu restaurant and sports bar, with diners cooking their own food, choosing from various ingredients and broths. At this point in time, Van Shabu & Bar is hoping for a November opening.
[November 2 update: According to a job post within the Craigslist site, Van Shabu is looking to open sometime in December.]
The Savin Hill section of Dorchester, which is a bit south of the Columbia Road exit off of the Southeast Expressway, has a number of other eateries in the neighborhood, including Shanti, McKenna's Cafe, The Harp and Bard, and Savin Bar and Kitchen.
Keep checking back for updates on Van Shabu & Bar over the coming weeks.
