Mega Bites diner — which has sat near Vanderbilt Avenue for decades — announced on Christmas Eve that it would be closing indefinitely after holding out hope for the recently-passed federal relief package or a rent break.
"We hoped this next COVID 19 relief bill would have provided some MEANINGFUL NON LOAN assistance for restaurants and other small businesses but unfortunately it does not.
