Have not been able to get a straight answer on this Sven, it is possible they may be closed?
also I have heard maybe just shorter hours on Sunday, but this is hearsay.....

As someone who has worked in many bar's and closed down locations for other bar locations for friends, you will usually see the following.
They do not want to purchase food or Booze when they will not exist the next day and can't transfer the product to the new owners.
The employees probably have new job's by now,so whoever serves you is probably a fill in and doesn't know the job.
So If they are open they are probably altering the drinks and food to work with whatever product is left.
Not the best way to remember a place usually.

I was there today and found out that they will be open Sunday and serving a very limited menu to control table wait times and food prep times. I saw many familiar faces in the wait staff today so while there may be some temporary help, it looked like the majority are the same employees who have served us over the years. Tip these people well if you venture down there over the next few days as they will be unemployed come Monday!

I'm so happy that we got to have our Last Hurrah at Bahooka's last Saturday Night. VIP Table, VIP Service from Chico, Strong Drinks & Delicious Food with Good Friends. Who would of thought that a 6:00 Reservation would last as long to close the restaurant for the night? Bahooka's will Always have a Special Place in Our Hearts & Memories

I hope I can get one last Grenade with the Pin Pulled. I'm still so sad to see this place go. I will probably cry.

If you don't have a reservation please don't go. These people have been swamped since they announced it and they really deserve a rest. I'm told they are just turning folks away and it just adds to the confusion.

I was going to take a little long lunch at work today (Friday) and head over to meet Puka von Pele (who was geting in line at 11 for opening at 11:30).
Is it true you can't get in without reservations? I thought it was first-come first serve now. Or are you only talking about Sunday night, Ray?

Lunch might be ok but they are just so overwhelmed till Sunday night. They have been killing themselves to serve all but it's just too much. And it's only because we love it so much. Just try to understand it from their standpoint. I've been told so many horror stories if people demanding prompt service but the load is too great to keep up with. God bless them all for their efforts.

Then go in for a drink. They stopped taking reservations a while ago. Walk in's are welcomed, but just realize there's going to be a long wait time as well as limited food menu.
Pay your respect by hitting the bar for a bowl once more and tip them bartenders well. they deserve it.

I saw this on their Facebook page:
"This is it! Cash only from now on, and our food supplies are dwindling, we will probably run out today. For the rest of out time, DRINKS WILL BE FLOWING! This is it! Thanks everyone!"

Time to kill Rufus.
He's over 25 I believe, (he's had a good, long life.)
Grill him up, and serve him to the fans.

ahhh BTD, always such a great contributor to the TC threads, your wit has no bounds. SoccerTiki, glad to hear this on again. I'm trying to capture a bunch of memories of Bahooka from folks, so if you see me running around and want to participate, grab me and let me know. Cheers!
