Sardi’s/Olney Station (3418 Olney Laytonsville Rd, Olney) will open at 11am on Tuesday following an issue with the exhaust system that caused the restaurant to temporarily close on Monday night. Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) and county health inspectors have cleared the restaurant to reopen for business as usual starting Tuesday morning.
We spoke with owner Phil Sardelis who let us know that the safety of the Sardi’s employees and customers is always his number one priority. “The exhaust system at every Sardi’s location is cleaned every two weeks and unfortunately the recent situations have been freak occurrences.” Sardelis told us. Insurance claims were not filed for the recent fires at both the Gaithersburg and Olney location as the ultimate goal has been to fix any potential issue and get the restaurants open again. The Gaithersburg location will likely reopen in a few weeks as they await the arrival and installation of a fan for the exhaust system.
