Anyone ever been to/heard of "Risque Cafe"?

I know it's a little out of Davis Sq., but I hope the group will bear with me.

I was looking for a coffeeshop near Broadway and Cutter and while looking on Google Maps, I happened to notice a listing for "Risque Cafe" at 76 Thurston St. I'd never heard of the place and was intrigued by the name and googled it and found.... very little.

All the results i turned up are simply auto-populated from some central database. I found no reviews, no marketing copy, nothing at all to indicate it's a real place. When I clicked on the street view, it seems to be a residential area with no businesses. If this place does exist (and the google maps is correct), then it's in a home with no signs that I can find on street view. Social media searches only turned up a place in Florida and another in Chicago.

I'm fascinated, of course, and inventing all sorts of fantastical scenarios in my head. I almost don't want to ask because in my head it's a semi-legal burlesque-themed speakeasy in someone's basement and you need a password to get in. But I am curious. Can anyone offer more solid information?

Sounds like a place that would be cool to go to in theory but when you went you would decide it was tacky and want to leave.
