An Annapolis correspondent wrote in concerned about Hell Point Seafood. She got the news that Bob Kinkead's restaurant may be closed from the Eye On Annapolis website.

John Frenaye says that Hell Point Seafood appears to have closed after Sunday night's dinner service but he has been unable so far to have the news confirmed from the restaurant's management. The closing may be temporary, the article says.

The restaurant's website wasn't functioning on Wednesday morning, although it was down last time I checked on Feb. 8. An outgoing message on Hell Point's phone has information about winter hours, which were said to be Thursday through Saturday dinner and Friday through Sunday lunch service. So it could just be that. We'll see.

Hell Point's 2009 opening on Dock Street was a newsmaker because its owner and chef, Bob Kinkead, is the force behind one of Washington, D.C.'s most enduring power restaurants, Kinkead's.
