Seems like not long ago we brought you news of El Tecolote, the Mexcio City–style taqueria that went into the Mercat Negre space in Williamsburg. Today an employee at Mercat confirmed that the restaurant is closed and has been since November. “We had had the space for two years, and it really had more to do with the previous incarnation,” she told us. “It was losing steam.” She conceded that the somewhat out-of-the-way location didn’t help. If you’re still craving tacos, probably best to head across the river to Alphabet City, a.k.a. Taco Town.

Adiós, El Tecolote
