Chakra, one of Bergen County’s top restaurants, is scheduled to close its doors. Thomas Ciszak, chef/partner of Chakra, announced that the restaurant will close after dinner service on Saturday, August 31st.
For 15 years – and under Chef Ciszak’s direction since 2010 – Chakra has been a soaring, sexy destination for groundbreaking cocktails, sushi, and his trademark eclectic Modern American cuisine.
“With a heavy heart, I thank my Chakra team members for many years od dedication to great food and genuine hospitality. Chakra couldn’t have been as successful without them,” notes Chef Ciszak. “I also thank all our guests for their loyal patronage over the years. With so many great choices, I’m honored they consistently choose Chakra as their dining destination.”
Chef Ciszak’s next project is the launch of Brasserie Mémère in the Closter Plaza shopping center. His wife Evelyn Ciszak and partner Michael Chin will run the daily operations there. Mémère will feature well-priced everyday French fare, along with cocktails, beer and wine. The Ciszaks want to make this classic, rustic cuisine more accessible by delivering a simply, authentic dining experience. French for “granny,” Mémère is named in honor of Chef Diszak’s grandmother, who first inspired him to cook.
Brasserie Mémère is slated to open in October at 107 Vervalen Street, Closter, NJ.
Bon Appétit!
