Japanese Steakhouse to Move Into Former Gus O'Connor's Location

Blue Fin Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar will be moving into the previous Gus O'Connor's location on Main Street in Novi, according to a report in the Observer & Eccentric.

The report says the steakhouse will open early next year or spring.

Gus O'Connor's closed abruptly more than a year ago; the business was evicted when they failed to pay back rent and utilities of more than $80,000 to its landlord, Luna Properties.

Back then, Ara Topouzian, Novi economic development director, told Novi Patch that the building was a preferred business spot.

“It’s a prime piece of property,” he said. “A lot of people know that property; it’s very visible. It’s one of the focal points of Main Street.”
