UPDATE 10/29/14: Last week, N'Awlinz 805 Grill opened at Centennial Plaza, the former home of N'Awlinz Bistro. Same cajun style food with some menu and concept changes1

I was shocked to see the news on the N'Awlinz Bistro Facebook page today: "We regretfully announce that Sunday, June 8th will be the last day of service for NAWLINZ Bistro and will remain closed until further notice. We thank you for your patronage over the last 8 months and hope to see you soon in one of our future endeavors. Please feel free to leave your comments.  -Chef Marcus Webster."

N'Awlinz Bistro first opened its doors here in the Conejo Valley in Newbury Park location in February 2012, then closed its doors there in December 2013 to focus its efforts on its Oxnard location, which opened to the public in September 2013. The Newbury Park location on Kimber Drive now serves as a catering-only location. Note: Please invite me to your event if you plan to use N'Awlinz Bistro as your caterer. YUM!
