SAN DIEGO -- The owners of Martinis Above Fourth announced on Monday the sale of their popular Hillcrest bar, restaurant and community gathering spot to longtime San Diego residents Jim Simpson and Doru Tifui.

The venue, affectionately known by many in the community as MA4, has been owned by Chaz Weathers, Dale Dubach and John Osgood since 2004. In the nearly eight years that the trio has operated MA4, it has been transformed into a popular social hub playing host to numerous birthday and special occasion celebrations, live performances and charitable fundraisers.

More than $25,000 was raised as a result of the effort, which included a combination of donations from event participants and "legacy contributions" from four local business owners.
