FISH TALE RESTAURANT TO CLOSE

FISH TALE RESTAURANT TO CLOSE IN AUGUST and become THIRD EJ MALLOY'S

After a month of social media speculation on the closing of the Los Altos Fish Tale, the restaurant
confirmed on their social media site that they are indeed closing the site after 36 years:

Fish Tale Farewell
On November 22, 1977, The Fish Tale Restaurant opened its doors to its first customers. This coming August 1, 2014, it will close its doors for the last time.
We want to thank you, our customers, for making The Fish Tale Restaurant the oldest seafood restaurant in Long Beach. For 36 years we have come to know you and regard you as our friends.
We are proud of the hundreds of cooks, dishwashers, servers, receptionists, and managers we've employed over these many years and we are grateful for their service. We have taken pleasure in hiring the brothers, sisters, and the children of former employees. The many Fish Tale romances and marriages have enriched our lives. We will miss our extensive Fish Tale family.
It is a difficult to close the restaurant and say goodbye to all our Fish Tale friends; however, it's time to say farewell and thank you to all.

Neighborhood social media has reported that the sale of the restaurant was to the E.J. Malloy's group. 

A story in the Press-Telegram now confirms that E.J. Malloys will take over the space.

The two EJ Malloy's currently stay open until 12 midnight.

The Los Altos Center Adjacent  Neighborhoods will be monitoring the alcohol licensing process to insure that the restrictions of the neighborhood alcohol establishments are incorporated into any new alcohol establishment to replace the Fish Tale.
