I never heard about the PH in Waikiki previously closing down. From the time of its grand opening, it's always been at the old Mitsukoshi building.

There was a PH in Lahaina, which closed down about 10 years ago.

What I mean is I thought it was closed temporarily when it changed ownership circa 2001 or so?

PBN reporting that Planet Hollywood will close in Waikiki next week when its lease runs out.

Hasn't this closed once before and re-opened?

Was the food here better than at Down to Earth from across the street?

yes, it was much better - with the added advantage of not being run by a cult.

Re: Disappearing establishments

Should this go under disappearing est., when it's actually sort of coming back? From Erika at the Star Bull:

Re: Disappearing establishments

A few months back I wrote about the new Manalani's Restaurant in Kahaluu, just past the Hygenic Store and the Sunshine Art Gallery headed north on Kam Highway. Supposedly awesome plate lunches, and the owners even jumped in and posted here on HT a couple of times.
Well, I've been meaning to post that it's been closed for a few months already. Realtors sign out in front, and looking through the chain-link fence you can see that nothing has been touched there for a long time.
Bummer. I never even had a chance to try it.

For some reason... parking maybe? That spot doesn't seem to be able to maintain a business. Remember the choice tacos?
Hope I have the same area in mind.

Re: Disappearing establishments

Happened a couple of months ago if I recall correctly - they ran big headlines in their newspaper ads announcing closeouts and closing. But if you don't read the paper . . .

Bingo! Not the hard copy.

This thread exist in the Kaukau Korner sub-forum so more than likey this would be about places that sells food, either you eat at the site, or take out it or bring it home to make it.

There is another thread in another sub-forum that discusses the closures of other types of businesses.

I never noticed this thread was in Kaukau Korner, Helen. Thanks for the heads up. I know I've seen other posts about disappearing businesses other than restaurants. The thread, "Disappearing businesses", that you link to was started a couple of weeks ago. Where might I have seen non-food related closures over the past few years?
