Kandi Burruss’ steak and seafood restaurant is reportedly facing legal trouble, according to The Atlanta Journal-Contitution. The landlord of Burruss’ Blaze Steak & Seafood claims that the former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star and the restaurant owe a total of $154,139.17 in unpaid rent.
In a lawsuit filed on Monday in Fulton County State Court, Montego Pacific Inc. stated that the restaurant also owes an additional $56,495.75 for repairs to the property and a 10% overhead fee, not including interest. Montego alleges that Burruss has breached her lease and will incur an extra $12,083.50 per month in interest until the back rent is settled.
Burruss, a long-time cast member of RHOA and a member of the R&B group Xscape, launched the restaurant in southwest Atlanta in 2020 alongside her husband, Todd Tucker. They also own a comfort food establishment called Old Lady Gang, which debuted in Castleberry Hill in 2017. The complaint states that Montego is giving Burruss and the restaurant 10 days to pay the outstanding amount to avoid further liability.
