Things were looking grim when Uptown Oakland’s Hawker Fare (2300 Webster St.) announced that it would be closed indefinitely after masked vandals lit a trash can on fire outside the restaurant early on Saturday morning, melting the restaurant’s electrical meters.
But the repair process has been relatively quick, and owner James Syhabout confirmed that Hawker Fare will reopen for dinner tonight, July 25, at 5 p.m. The restaurant will subsequently resume its regular business hours.
