Proof, the downtown D.C. restaurant and wine bar that has been open since 2007, will close its doors Feb. 2, owner Jason Kuller, brother of the restaurant's late founder, Mark Kuller, said in a statement.
The restaurant was unable to reach an agreement with its landlord, said Kuller, hinting that Proof could come back in another iteration at another location. Kuller and chef Johanna Hellrigl are partners in Fat Baby Inc., which owns Proof and 14th street Thai restaurant Doi Moi.
