Proof Barbecue is closing its doors in Ohio City after February 1, and it’s hitting home for anyone who’s watched local spots fight to survive. Owner Dave Ferrante poured everything into the place, from moving locations to revamping the space, but a drop in business since September sealed its fate. It’s tough to see a neighborhood spot go, especially when the food and team were solid. Ferrante hopes the next business will help Lorain Ave. thrive. What do you think Ohio City needs most in that space? #Food #OhioCity #SupportLocal
