Little Cleo's Closing So Culinary Dropout At The Yard Can Expand

Fox Restaurant Concepts said Wednesday that they are closing Little Cleo's after Mother's Day so that they can expand Culinary Dropout.

PHOENIX, AZ – As popular as Little Cleo's Seafood Legend has been since opening five years ago, it apparently was not quite popular enough. Fox Restaurant Concepts announced Wednesday they are closing the popular hangour.

While people would lineup for their oyster bar and fresh fish, Fox says that they need the space to make more room for Little Cleo's sister place, Culinary Dropout at the Yard.

Little Cleo's will become additional bar and private dining room for Culinary Dropout.
