Vista Ramen is dropping the ramen.

The 37-seat Cherokee Street restaurant, which debuted two years ago, is rebranding to become just VISTA, a new diner-inspired concept. Owners Casey and Jeremy Miller and chef Chris Bork announced they will pivot from their ramen selection to something completely new.

The current menu will be available through Saturday, July 14. The restaurant will then close briefly before VISTA opens on Wednesday, July 18.

"Creating food that is not limited to certain boundaries is incredibly freeing," Bork said in a release, "and that reflects in our food, which is just getting better."

New menu items will feel similar to Vista Ramen's evolving and unique small plates. VISTA plans to initially offer a smoked brisket bolognese with tagliolini, pomegranate-glazed beef ribs and onion rings, and roasted sweet potato with dukkah. Fans of Vista Ramen need not worry: Two favorite small plates, the Korean fried chicken sliders and pork ribs, will remain.

Bork also ran the dining concept inside Earthbound Beer known as Mothership, which closed after service in late June. (The brewery remains open.) The Ole Hickory smoker he used at Earthbound will move to VISTA for incorporating more smoked items.
