In January 2018, the 805 Deli at 135 East Carrillo Street closed and posted a sign that read “For all our customers, 805 Deli will be closed for the month of January for remodeling. We will be open February first.” The deadline came and went and there was no activity until December 2019 when the name of the business posted on the front of the building was changed to “The 805 Hazy and Deli” prompting much speculation on what the addition of “hazy” to the name means. By April 2022 a new floor had been added and the row of refrigerators remained in place, suggesting that an eatery of some sort was still on its way. I drove by yesterday and noticed that the restaurant days are over and that the building is now the home of Open Air Bicycles.
