Beach Watch restaurant closed its door 07/13/2011 due to a bitter lawsuit
settlement with the Landlord.
To start an eviction suit in these economic times with a tenant who does pay his rent is incomprehensible. Specially if the landlord is the one who makes operating the business difficult and then turn around and blames the tenant. Only short: We had the pleasure to serve up to 300,000 customers in over 4 years and more than 100 weddings. It was a rentable professional restaurant and well guarded Pier and Bait Shop 24/7 operation. A few locals influenced the city administration and the commission denunciated our operation in public meetings. Before opening we rescued the project of the new restaurant building 3 times and without us there would be no restaurant because the administration was unable and nobody else wanted to deal with them. The city frauded us about the building and the costs and breached the lease in many issues. We invested big money and paid all rent and bill - not enough. The money is lost. We were treated bad and bullied out of any kind of quiet enjoyment over years with landlord's goal to get the "diamond" in possession. Even false affidavits were presented to court. Our life was miserable and we only hope that our real customers still were happy. Who ever wants we like to hear from you, we would appreciate very much.
Thank you all our customer as well as the staff.
Private additional information:
We always had in mind the benefit of many, customers, staff, purveyors and others beside the strive for the american dream and to secure our retirement. I am left alone after having cared for her so much unimaginable though the business made it very tight and having iniciated and created the Landmark Beach Watch, a real diamond and profitable business diminished from an administration senseless and without merit. Not imaginable this restaurant ever could be on somebody's mind and personal risk again.
Who ever may be interested to learn more about this tragical adventure either regarding the business or the personal stress please feel free to email svenjutz@yahoo.com There will be a book about the story of Dania Beach-Watch (watch out!).
