I bought a gift card as a Christmas gift two weeks ago and now they close? They had to have known they were closing, yet were still selling gift cards.

Gusto Cuban - CLOSED
I drove by it on the way home today and noticed all the lights were off. When I got home I checked online and saw it had closed. Does anyone know why and how long they've been closed? I went there in September and it seemed pretty busy.
