MLT restaurants to close

According to our North newspartner the MLTNews, two restaurants in Mountlake Terrace are closing.

One is the fairly new Sahara / Spuds restaurant on 244th SW, next to Time Out Burgers. Sahara never quite got established with a loyal clientele.

In contrast, the MLT Canyons restaurant in the shopping and movie theatre center down the street has been extremely popular. It opened twelve years ago, replacing a soup and sandwich place called Zoopa's.

The Canyons Restaurant has been purchased by a successful Mexican restaurant called Matazlan, which is losing its lease at its current, 30 year location in Kenmore.

Canyons continues to operate three other restaurants in Bothell, Monroe, and Redmond.
