Rising Sun Bistro From Restaurant Impossible Has Closed

Rising Sun Bistro in Kalispell Montana, which was featured on season 5 (2012-2013) of Restaurant Impossible has closed.  The restaurant was put up for sale last year for $499,000 and it is still for sale right now, but the owners have now decided to close.  Sally has retired and the other owners of the restaurant have moved on.

A message from the restaurant's answering machine states:
"Bonjour! And thank you for calling the Rising Sun Bistro.  We would like to thank you for being a part of Flathead Valley dining for over eight years and we have closed.  Sally finally retired and the other owners have moved on.  Thank you for so many great memories and we will have many to remember forever.  We also actually have an opportunity for a restauranteur to come in and take over.  It's a win-win situation.  It's a great location, beautiful surroundings, and an entire restaurant that is ready to go.  You can call 260-5595 if you have um any questions or would like more information.  Thanks again."

The restaurant website pretty much says the same thing and it sounds like Sally plans to go to France.

This is the sixth restaurant from season 5 of Restaurant Impossible that has closed, and the Restaurant Impossible Update page has been updated to show this.
