Cafe Orlin signs off

[Photo from yesterday]

As previously reported, Cafe Orlin closed last night after service, wrapping up a 36-year run on St. Mark's Place.

Grub Street reported last month that the Cafe Orlin owner is also the building's landlord, "and a new restaurant will open in its place" here between First Avenue and Second Avenue.

So far, the restaurant hasn't posted any messages on the Cafe's social media properties abut the closure or what might be next.

There were a handful of thank-yous and goodbyes on social media...

We enjoyed one last dinner at Café Orlin, which closes tonight after 36 years in business. We will miss this place. #nyc #eastvillage pic.twitter.com/bmuggFs5bB

After 36 years. Good night. Good bye Cafe Orlin. The last night at the East Village gem and special St. Marks Place institution. So sorry to see it close. NYC. October 2017. @evgrieve @cafeorlin
