| Sam's Seafood was established in 1927. The restaurant moved to this location in 1960 and brought the sign with them. It closed in 2006 but reopened briefly in 2007. In 2008, it became the Kona restaurant. Since 2009, the building housed Don the Beachcomber. The sign's neon was replaced with LED rope. There were about 16 Don the Beachcomber restaurants that operated between 1933 and 1989. The restaurant chain was revived with the opening of this restaurant. It continued to feature Hawaiian decor and floor shows until it closed in 2018. The building will most likely be demolished. It was still there in 2019. The sign was removed in 2021 and is now in storage at Lace Music Products in Cypress, CA. The sign was restored with LED strips. The building briefly housed the Himalayan Grill. It is vacant now. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, and 3. [2007 photos above thanks R.B. Reed] [map] |
