Agura Closes To Retool and Reopen Under New Concept

Agura CEO Yasumasa Kawabata has confirmed that his 10-month old Japanese eatery on La Cienega has shuttered. As it now stands, the plan is to remodel the space and reopen late September as a completely different concept. Unfortunately, can't say it's a huge shocker, the place appeared consistently empty, best of luck for round two. What's going to happen to that giant buddha? [EaterWire]
