Tasty Burger withdraws request for license in South Boston

The Boston Licensing Board had scheduled a hearing for next week on Tasty Burger's request for a food-serving license, but the hearing request has been withdrawn.

They are planning to meet with the community some more before resubmitting their license. I guess people are complaining about the proposed hours (as they do in any neighborhood when anything new opens regardless of what the hours of the place that was there before or any other places nearby; gotta love Bostonians...)

That corner barely qualifies as residential. The location is between a gas station and an abandoned electrical store.

Maybe having a good burger

Maybe having a good burger joint on L street will get people to notice Wolfies down the street. I swear there has never been more than a dozen people in there at a time.

No loss
