Twin Peaks restaurant in Tulsa closes suddenly

A south Tulsa restaurant suddenly closed New Year's Day, leaving its employees without a job.

Former servers at Twin Peaks near 71st and Memorial tell us they worked New Year's Eve and then went to a mandatory meeting yesterday morning.

“They called us in, they announced a girl of the month, a bartender of the month, helping supporting staff of the month,” one server told KRMG. “Basically just kind of spread love a little bit, just for the owners to step in and say okay, our lease ends the 31st of January, last night was our last day of operation.”

The workers said they were offered jobs in Oklahoma City or in Rogers, Arkansas.

They tell us the owners do plan to re-open Twin Peaks at a different location in Tulsa.
