Diego Argoti, the chef of Poltergeist, commented on the decision to close, stating, 'If I let my ego get the best of it and continue this, we'll fade out and we'll lose money. Right now we could leave and pay everyone out and that's very rare, closing a restaurant with style and grace.' His perspective emphasizes the importance of departing while still at a peak, avoiding a decline.
Jordan Weiss reflected on the challenges of maintaining the restaurant's success, saying, 'There were nights where I was like, 'Man, I wish this place was just a flat-out dud because it would just be easier to make these decisions and pull the trigger and explain it away.' In contrast, the restaurant consistently performed well, complicating the decision to close.
