At its debut in 2005, The Stanger's Charles Mudede described the back bar of Maharaja as the "coolest bar in town." Capitol Hill Seattle says that Maharaja's owners, who sold the Pike/Pine restaurant and bar before it closed in early 2011, have now taken over the storied corner of 12th & Pike most recently occupied by Chao Bistro and will open a bar and restaurant called Bombay Bistro. Barcraft nerds take note: all of the tvs are gone. [CHS]
