Belly Bows Out: The Mission Set to Ignite New Life at Epicenter!
In late October, Belly, known for its Asian-inspired cuisine, shuttered its original location on Camelback Road and Seventh Avenue. The restaurant encouraged patrons to visit its second location in Gilbert, maintaining a presence in the Phoenix area.
However, the Gilbert location at the Epicenter followed suit and closed its doors on December 31. This unexpected decision leaves fans of Belly seeking alternatives for their favorite dishes.
While the reasons for the closure have not been publicly detailed, this marks a significant shift in Belly’s operations after its relocation efforts within the Valley.
As the local dining scene faces ongoing challenges, the closure further highlights the competitive nature of the restaurant industry in the region.
Customers and food enthusiasts are left wondering what the future holds for Belly and whether it will explore new avenues or locations in the coming months.
