They're good people who are invested in building our community. If they say that the construction impacted this restaurant more than Nick and Nat's and Marbles, I'm strongly inclined to believe them. They really don't seem to be assholes who are just dipping in to exploit a brand. Restaurants are really hard, and they did their best to reinvent and update a local institution to keep it alive.
There often didn't seem to be that many people in the new Harmony Lunch at dinnertime (well...) and the streetscape construction more than LRT would have affected them in a way that hasn't been an issue for Taco Farm. (Taco Farm also used to be quite good but not as much recently).
