JUL 13: ONE BBQ CLOSES, ANOTHER OPENS; TOMMYRAYS SAYS GOODBYE IN STUDIO CITY, WHILE POMONA BBQ HAS "BRAVO" GRAND OPENING

At noon on July 13, there will be a high profile restaurant opening as Chef Brian from the Bravo TV show "Top Chef" opens his new eatery MATCH BBQ and Grill with, what else, a BBQ kickoff event. MATCH BBQ and Grill, 50 Rio Rancho Road, Pomona.

Alas, today also marks the last day for an excellent BBQ restaurant in Studio City called TommyRays. Here is the email they sent out:

We are sorry to announce that Tommy Rays is closing at 4PM on July 13th after two years in business. We have appreciated the patronage of all customers for the last two years especially the Studio City residents and regulars. The good news is that we have sold the business to a local restauranteur. In about 2-3 months, a new restaurant will open for all of us and the neighborhood to enjoy. As good neighbors, we wanted to make sure everyone knew of the change ..... Thanks again for your support and friendship.
