Steve's Kitchen in Allston Has Been Sold, Is Becoming Cafe Weekend

The owner of a decades-old favorite for breakfast in Allston is calling it a day, though it looks like the dining spot will continue on with little in the way of changes.

According to an article from Universal Hub, Steve's Kitchen on Harvard Avenue put up a note on Facebook over the weekend saying, "To our friends, The time has come for us to retire. We gave our heart and soul for 37 years. We are blessed to have so many loyal customers. Our kids were raised here. Many of you walked thru these doors as young students and left years later as young professionals. We are forever greatful to each and every one of you. Thank you for your patronage and great memories." UH, however has learned that the eatery has been sold and that the new owners plan to keep it open "just as it is."

Steve's Kitchen has been known in part for its all-day breakfasts along with lunch items including some Greek dishes.

The address for Steve's Kitchen is 120 Harvard Ave, Allston, MA, 02134.

[March 1 update: Universal Hub mentions that Steve's Kitchen will indeed remain open, but with a new name--Cafe Weekend.]
