L&I Shuts Down “Gay Pizza” on 13th Street


Here’s why we can’t have anything nice (although I never really found the affectionately named Homo Hut “nice,” so to speak): The popular late-night “Gay Pizza” restaurant, located at 209 South 13th Street, has been shut down by the city’s Department of Licenses and Inspections.

The “Cease Operations/Stop Work Order” sign is clearly displayed on the door of the shop, indicating that the location had “no food license,” and that the “corrective actions needed to remove this condition” are to “obtain food license #3120, Food Prep.”

I spoke with Ron Spencer in L&I this morning who confirmed that the license expired in April of this year. However, according to his records, it appears that the pizza restaurant may have had no license from 2007 to 2014.

We’ve called “Homo Hut” several times to get their response and there’s been no answer. We’ll keep you updated should more information become available.
