Has anyone ever heard of the restaurant Bombay Bicycle Club?

about 9 or 10 years ago, i lived in the St. Louis metro area. close to Westport Plaza, there was a american-fusion restaurant called Bombay Bicycle Club. There was at least one other location in Missouri (Springfield) and also a location in Clearwater, FL. There were probably a lot more, but I have eaten at those 3 personally. The locations in Springfield and at Westport closed in close proximity to each other and I didn't live in the Clearwater area, so i don't know exactly when that location closed, but I went back years later and that location no longer existed (a bar occupied the building where it used to be). I am just wondering if anyone else remembers Bombay Bicycle Club or knows why they closed, because I never heard anything but positive reviews about the food. Also, i'm interested in finding out where other locations were because for them to be in MO and FL, it seems like it would have to be a national chain . . .Has anyone ever heard of the restaurant Bombay Bicycle Club?

They used to be in southern California years ago and the one that I used to frequent has been closed about 8 years now.

They had a Japanese dish that I had been looking over 30

years for. Yaki Soba was that dish and it brought back memories of of my travels to the Pacific in the late 60s.

They also had Karaoke in the bar.Has anyone ever heard of the restaurant Bombay Bicycle Club?
They used to be a Florida based chain not so great!!!
I am not surprised they closed. The food was less than mediocre and the service was worse.Has anyone ever heard of the restaurant Bombay Bicycle Club?
They went out of business. They closed because of "overpriced medicore food served by untrained and semi trained wait staff.



On the positive side, the wait staff was HOT so I over tipped for lousy food but got to stare at the nice bodies.
I remember them, and they have a website:

It would appear they've reopened.
There use to be one in Champaine Ill, but don't know if its still there, and one in Indiana.
There was one Brookfield, WI about 3-4 years ago but the kept not meeting health codes, etc. One of my friends used to work there and said it was disgusting.
all of the locations in Illinois have closed
