Taylor Charles Steak & Ice Closed (temporarily?) on H Street – “All we can say right now are cheesesteaks are not dead”

1320 H Street, NE

“Dear PoPville,

It appears that Taylor Gourmet’s foray into Philly Cheesesteaks – Taylor Charles Steak and Ice on H Street – has gone belly up. The windows are papered over and it’s clearly closed. Not hugely surprising, as it never seemed to do much business. I also found it a tremendously disappointing place – really bad, overpriced cheesesteaks.”

A friend of mine checked it out this morning and sends word that a permit has been posted for “alteration/repair”. Strangely there is no mention on Taylor Charles’ twitter and they haven’t sent a tweet since Dec. 21st. Their website is still active though.

A rep. for the restaurant tells me via email:

“All we can say right now are cheesesteaks are not dead.”

Will update when more info becomes available.
