Taverna in College Park will close permanently

on
Saturday, Dec. 1.

The outpost of the once-popular D.C. restaurant chain inside the Hotel at
the University of Maryland
<https://www.hyattsvillewire.com/2017/09/23/hotel-university-maryland-opens/>
fell
victim to owner Mike Isabella's Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

In recent months, Isabella has shut down restaurants due to declining
traffic after reports that a former general manager was suing him
<https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/celebrity-chef-mike-isabella-is-sued-for-extraordinary-sexual-harassment/2018/03/19/4cc47bf4-27a4-11e8-b79d-f3d931db7f68_story.html?utm_term=.0ecb18512db8>
for sexual harassment.

In the lawsuit, Chloe Caras alleged that Isabella and his partners called
her “bitch” and “whore,” commented on her body and touched her without
permission. Isabella settled for an undisclosed amount

but his restaurants were disqualified from awards and removed from dining
guides.

Isabella was not the first celebrity chef to come to Route 1. Noted D.C.
chef Geoff Tracy

who has since moved to New York, ran Hank's Tavern and Eats
<https://www.hyattsvillewire.com/2014/04/07/hanks-tavern-to-close-this-month/>
at University Town Center from 2008 to 2014.
