I was too young to remember when they closed, but wasn't it near where the old Villa theater building stands today?
A fellow I used to work with showed me a tray, menu, and a couple of glasses from there. He's long reitred, and ate there as a kid with his family.
The restaurant entrance was truly a racist icon, from another age. Unbelievable.
