Why Priyanka Chopra’s Former Restaurant Sona Is Being Shut?

A Reddit user shared, “Overpriced and the food wasn’t spectacular and how there are so many nicer restaurants in NYC like Dhamaka and Gupshup.” Well, this could be a reason since food is the main element here and with that being poor and overpriced, it makes sense. Another user shared their experience and said, “I’ve been there completely normal food. You’d expect something with a little bit of oomph from an upscale restaurant like this. I get it they need to westernise the taste a bit to appeal to the masses, but gosh even I could make it more masaledaar. Prices were OK by NYC standards so no complaints there. Not a loss it’s shutting down.” Mixed reactions, I see.

Another Reddit user said, “It’s not easy to run a Horeca business where margins are low and operation costs are higher.” A Redditor shared some inside details and here’s what they revealed, ” I knew a Chef who used to work there. The restaurant wasn’t doing good enough. Staff had to work beyond working hours. A lot of them were let go or left in the last few years. Management was a mess. PC and Nick Jonas disassociated themselves from the restaurant almost a year/two back. They were not part of it. I did like the food there though, nothing extraordinary, but still good at taste.” Ouch!

Overall, the conclusions are pretty bad. Almost all of them didn’t enjoy the restaurant’s food, price and ambience. For the unversed,  The NYC restaurant  Sona was officially opened in 2021. It was started by Bollywood actor Priyanka Chopra and Maneesh Goyal. However, Priyanka and Nick Jonas discontinued her partnership with the restaurant in 2023 for unspecified reasons. And within months after she left, the restaurant announced that it is shutting down on June 30 through an Instagram post.
