Workers have removed the plywood from outside 97 St. Mark's Place between Avenue A and First Avenue...
The owners of St. Dymphna's down the block are opening a Portuguese restaurant called Taberna 97 in this space.
The restaurant has an Instagram account, which notes they will be a "Leed Certified ... Sustainable Kitchen." No word on an opening date. (DNAinfo reported in March 2015 that the owners were hoping for a July 2015 opening.)
The space was previously home to Yaffa Cafe, which closed for good after 31 years in September 2014, as we first reported.
