It's unclear the cause for the delay but an opening is expected for either late 2020 or sometime in 2021.

The reason behind the hold was not disclosed, though the opening is anticipated for either late this year or sometime in 2021.  The company signed a lease for the 1,200-square-foot space, at 2435 Sepulveda Boulevard, in Torrance. “It’s not going to be for a long while,” the spokesperson said.
