The Marina: It took longer than expected (as in six months or so longer), but Eastside West has finally shuttered temporarily to make way for the new regime from Butterfly. It's a quick turnkey move for now, as Butterfly honcho Rob Lam is anticipating reopening the place in seven to ten days, and then taking things from there (i.e., the future may see bigger changes). Per the original plan, Dino Vasquez will be the executive chef and will bring along a seasonal American Regional menu as Eastside West basically starts the transition to a more true version of a restaurant rather than another Marina bar.
