Irvine's Diamond Jamboree is about to get a slew a new restaurants. Not counting Chef Hung, which opened earlier this month, still slated to debut are SWSH, Itriya Cafe, and Curry House CoCo Ichibanya.
But even the red-hot plaza has had its share of failures. The first two closures happened two years ago. What was once the froyo shop Ce Fiore turned quickly into a Lollicup, and the HanArum Roll House, a kimbap maker, folded up to become H-Mart's sushi counter. On both counts, barely anyone blinked.

Now comes a more visible, and much more notable closure, which will leave a gaping hole in a prominent spot. A tipster named Melissa e-mailed me last night to write that Greek Islands Cuisine in Diamond Jamboree has closed. She was there last week and noticed there was a note on the door explaining that their last day would be this past Sunday, 8/28.
Their Facebook confirms the news. They posted this farewell that notes that their original, more modest location at a food court on Main is still open.
