DSC0013_1Back in August, Elevation Burger closed its doors at the corner of Hillcrest and Northwest Highway “temporarily,” according to one SideDish report. But now, the company’s spokesperson, Dagmara Postelle, tell us that it’s not coming back.

“Unfortunately that restaurant will not be reopening, but we are fielding interest from prospective franchise groups to reopen the market soon,” she said in an email.

Perhaps this was obvious given the amount of time that’s passed. But after driving by around dinner time Wednesday night, the restaurant’s sign was still up, the interior was dark, and all the chairs were stacked up on the tables — as if they were just closed for the night.

We featured Elevation in June 2012 for its kid-friendly vibe and specials. The burger joint touted its organic, grass-fed beef and aged cheddar cheese.
