Just heard unfortunate rumor on Reddit that Omi is done for good 6/26. Anyone heard anything?

So sad. RIP Chong Quing Spicy Chicken and Spicy Cumin Beef :(

Last time we picked up take out there, they told us they were moving, but not closing.

This makes me sad.

The food is great. I don't know where to go for authentic Chinese food now.

Best of luck to them.

I've heard good thinks about Lee's Asian Fusion in Walker, but have not made it out there yet. One of these days the wife and I will load up for the overnight trip out to this place.

Sad news if true. I know they told me they were trying to move. Lee’s is absolutely legit Sichuan. It’s different. The dry chili chicken is different than the Chong qing. Lee’s spicy oil dumplings and Dan Dan noodles are fantastic. The family that runs lees is extremely nice. We always feel like family there.

I know when we went last time (April'ish) my wife tried to get info from the girl (I think the owners daughter), but she wasn't very forthcoming and a bit aloof. My wife asked point blank if they were closing and she (at that time) said no, not closing, just moving. My wife asked where and the girl said she didn't know, but did say in Baton Rouge when asked about that.

Picked up food from there tonight. They have a small, handwritten sign inside that says they are closed as of the 27th.

Wife and I are not happy.
