850 Open Water closes indefinitely

Rick Outzen September 24, 2013

850 Open Water at 22 S. Palafox Place has closed. The restaurant was located in a tough spot – a former pool hall under Helen Back’s.

We contacted owner Joe Abston who commented on the closure: “We’ve indefinitely closed 850 Open Water. The building owners will be looking for a new concept. We will be transferring as many employees as possible to our other restaurants.”
