Where did King Ribs go?

Hi folks.
After 9 years, I'm determined to get to King Ribs (when they're open...) and have some of their amazing food, but I'm lead to believe that they've moved. Any news on this?
I just checked out a link for the Hard Rock and found a picture gallery with photos from King Ribs, so I'm hoping that they're still in business.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

we looked for king ribs in january
they are no longer in that location just beyond the Wendys

had king ribs in october and the owner told us that he still planned on moving to a better location over to the sasaki area in the winter of 09.

very disappointing indeed

I talked to the owner about a year ago. He also told me the same as Andrea said. He said near the Pizza Hut - not far from the roundabout by Texaco. He said he was waiting for the permits. I look when I'm back in Aruba in 2 months.

Sooooo...

Does that mean that the rib stand is still near the flea market on
L.G. Smith Blvd?
The stand was there last year, however there never seemed to be anyone working there (even when there was food cooking, we could never find anyone to sell us anything.... a little odd).

At any rate, thanks for the help thus far.
Hopefully we'll be able to find him this April.

the stand near the flea market was not king ribs

the original king ribs was near the harley store and itr real estate place

then they moved to about 200 yds behind the wendys

the move to over near the wendys was to have been temporary as the owner of KR was working on a lease and permits to open a permanent location in the sasaki area.
