Mayahuel closing on 6th Street; new restaurant in the works for the space
Mayahuel, the Mexican-themed cocktail bar on Sixth Street from the Death & Co. team (Ravi DeRossi), has announced that it will be shutting its doors on Aug. 8.
They made the announcement yesterday via Instagram... "Our lease has come to an end, and renewing wasn't an option."
The bar here on between First Avenue and Second Avenue opened in May 2009.
The space doesn't appear to be empty for long. An applicant was on last night's CB3-SLA docket for a new liquor license here. The application posted on the CB3 website is short on specifics, other than the proposed hours — 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily. The applicant, a founder of an e-commerce company for financial-service firms, also owns the building.
I went to this place exactly once. It was so loud, I couldn't hear my companion, so never again.
I'm also wondering how they got away with the building extension which blocks the sidewalk. There also used to be a tree there, which conveniently disappeared. This is the worst stretch of sidewalk on that block, especially when people stand there and smoke.
Speaking of Mexican food, Chipotle has had another norovirus outbreak and closed a store in Virginia. Their stock just took a nosedive. According to iiwaspoisoned.com, just today someone reported getting sick after eating at the StuyTown Chipotle too. The symptoms sound severe and gross.

I'd like to know how the owner of that building got permission to build an extra story on the building.
ReplyDeleteI guess that's one way to open a restaurant, buy a building. The new EV.
ReplyDeleteThey were really, really good.

Simple: they have a permit. It's public record.
