Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean sued for $1.4M after ‘abruptly’ closing Nashville restaurant

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – An actual property firm is suing MLB participant Adam LaRoche and nation stars Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean after the sudden closure of their Nashville restaurant.

Village 21 Investment Partners has filed to amend the unique lawsuit towards the three males, who collectively owned E3 Chophouse at 1628 twenty first Avenue South. The unique lawsuit was filed in Davidson County General Session Court by the Brentwood-based GBT Realty Corporation

The self-described “high end, service-driven, fine dining chophouse” has an unique location working in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, that is owned by LaRoche and his household. According to the restaurant’s websiteAldean and Bryan had “talked for years” about opening their very own location in Nashville, an concept that got here to fruition within the latter a part of 2019.

Then in February, the lawsuit claims, they “stopped paying the monthly rent and abruptly closed the restaurant and ceased operations.”

“Nashville — we’re hitting pause,” a message says on the E3 Chophouse Nashville website. “We’re temporarily pausing operations as we evaluate what Nashville needs next. Our team is assessing market opportunities and exploring potential rebrand and re-concept strategies for the future of this location.”

Village 21 says that this sudden closure was a default on their lease agreement. As such, the company is seeking to add an additional claim for breach of the lease guarantee.

“The Guarantors [Bryan, Aldean and LaRoche] guaranteed the performance of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, including the payment of rent, and agreed to pay the damages, liabilities, and costs, including attorneys’ fees, provided under the Lease resulting from Tenant’s default,” the amended criticism says.
