There's no mention of the temporary closure on their website or social media properties. Their phone is currently not in service.
Cholo Noir, a Chicano-inspired bar-restaurant, opened in July 2017.

In 2014, the owners received $15,000 by winning the New York Public Library’s New York StartUP! Business Plan Competition.
