This is such a painful period. Losing a longtime neighborhood friend hurts a lot.
Another one bites the dust. I frequented this restaurant for years when I was completing my undergraduate degree nearby at The New School. Their food was always delicious and inexpensive. Good lunch deals when you're a broke student. Damn. Pretty soon there might not be anywhere to go.
What a shame, but not surprising. For restaurants with such a large footprint it seems like staying open with outside dining and only 25% indoor is not sustainable. Vapiano a block north, also a large space, is also permanently closed.
Very sad — Saigon Market had the BEST soup! It was a great space to catch up with friends, have a date, or dine alone. Service was consistently stellar for over a decade. Alas, the location in Brooklyn looks like a journey.
Its fucking ridiculous Veneiros has to take everyone's temperature and personal information to get inside for a piece of cheesecake at 25% capacity, but the NYU frats have massive parties all night long without any restraint. NY POst is putting an expose to show how NYU is doing its best to kill us all.
