Earlier this week CP food critic David Snyder put us on to something odd going on at Sakana Sushi Caf� (1526 Sansom St.), which opened in July '09. When he tried to pop by for dinner early this week, they were closed during their usual business hours � a sign on the door promised that they'd be reopening within a week's time, but subsequent drop-bys have found it in an identical state. We've been calling all day and the line rings and rings. No official insight into what's going on there just yet, though there are some as-yet-unsubstantiated rumors floating about.

UPDATE: According to The Insider, Sakana's building was temporarily shut down by L&I for several violations.
