Matthew Kenney's aggressive expansion seems to be taking a few steps backward. Earlier today came news that he abruptly shuttered his Oklahoma City outlet.Toddrickallen also points out that while the main M.A.K.E. restaurant is still open, the take out kiosk called Make Out is now shuttered in Santa Monica Place. The retail environment for Santa Monica Place has been mostly a failure, mostly due to slow foot traffic and a tucked away location on the top floor of the new development.
