Taqueria Diana has apparently closed on 2nd Avenue

Taqueria Diana has been closed for the last 10 or so days at 129 Second Ave., between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place. 

Tipsters report that the space has been cleared out, and delivery is no longer available via the usual apps. There isn't any notice about a closure — temporary or otherwise — on Taqueria Diana's website and social media. (The phone is not in service.) 

The quick-serve taco shop debuted in July 2013. 

News of a closure may not come as a total shock — the building has a newish landlord. In a sale announced last July, Ryco Capital purchased the three buildings at 127-129 Second Ave. and 36 St. Mark's Place from Jonis Realty (which is run by Citi Urban Management, also owned by the Helegua family) for $29 million. 

Next door to Taqueria Diana, Misoya shut down in April. Eim Khao Mun Kai, a celebrated Thai-style chicken-and-rice specialist in Elmhurst, is in the works for that space.

    They were really great until about 2022 when the quality fell off.
