Green Tomato II - For Lease/Sale Sign Is Up
Looks like Green Tomato II is following O'Naturals and Boloco out of that Elm Street location - this one didn't even last a year.

Edit: While I was posting this comment, Candy posted here as well.

The one that you continue to perpetuate.
Supposedly it's been taken care of
Sure, supposedly if you don't believe the Boloco Owner (http://community.livejournal.com/davis_square/1413802.html?thread=15738794#t15738794) who says "In fact, we did gut the entire basement when we took over from O'naturals" or the Green Tomato people who offered Ron a tour (http://community.livejournal.com/davis_square/1413802.html?thread=15739050#t15739050).
But I understand, it's so much easier to believe someone who worked there three businesses ago, because it's the internet and all.

You're right, though; I can't see most restaurants doing well there.

Carberry's lasted there a long time, but that was back when there were less eateries in Davis to compete with. Perhaps the high number of eateries in Davis in last several years have make the Green Tomato II seem an unnecessarily long hike to some.
"and the space doesn't really lend itself to intimate dining."
There is something about that space that I find unappealing. I liked Carberry's a lot but something about the changes since by the last 3 businesses (or maybe it was just Au Naturals that changed it)made the place feel uninviting to me.

I think if even one of the places had hung some fabric panels or something on some of the walls, it would have gone a long way to making the interior more pleasant.

I'm convinced that no restaurant type place will survive there, but a community space could.

BTW, it ended up being closed Sundays - which was stupid. Most cafe style places I know are booked solid on Sundays.
