Chef Kelly Fletcher leaves The Revival in Tempe after just 8 months

Looks like more changes at The Revival. Chef Kelly Fletcher took to Facebook over the weekend to announce his departure from the eight-month-old Tempe restaurant:

Recently I parted ways as the executive chef/partner of The Revival in Tempe. I’m sure that rumors are abound and talk is creeping through the cracks in the walls, I’m stumbling into those lately. As it stands, I’ll still be trying to push myself daily and make myself and others happy through what I do. Chefs life, it’s always changing.

The Revival, you may recall, opened last July in the former Mucho Gusto building on the southwest corner of Roosevelt and University.

Fletcher, who had just left House of Tricks after 10 successful years, partnered with Mucho Gusto founder Chad Withycombe to create a contemporary American concept.

In October, though, The Revival ditched its contemporary American menu and switched to Mexican food.
