Redbones to open in Malden?

With much sadness I am reporting another excellent market (not quite supermarket) is closing: the Rosebud Produce market, on Commercial Street in Malden (halfway between Wellington and Malden orange line T stops).  I was there today, and signs say they are closing on May 11.  I will miss their inexpensive deli meats and inexpensive produce.  Most of all I will miss their sub sandwiches, which were the best priced yet Tastiest subs I've ever had. Sigh.

They are being purchased by a "Cambridge restaurant", which is Redbones, according to the Rosebud employees.

Pertinent to the Davis Square community: Is the Davis Square one closing/moving, or will this be a second location?  Two pluses for this location are the potential of more seating, and Parking!  Minus is that it's not really walkable easily from either of those two T stops.

This all sounds a bit dubious given that Redbones is not a "Cambridge restaurant" at all.

Well, they do sometimes have an outpost in Kendall (near where the ice rink is in winter). But true, definitely a "Somerville restaurant". Then again, maybe Cambridge and Somerville seem more or less interchangeable from Malden? ;-)
