Closings: Le Metro, Bistro 1689, Big 4


With the help of our favorite informant, let’s take a look at the closings/failures around town:

• Over in the Haight, Le Metro is done and will reportedly turn into a Nepalese restaurant.

Bistro 1689 gave it a go in Noe Valley, but the short-lived modern bistro succumbed in the end. Should’ve came up with a more creative name.

• The Huntington Hotel’s Big 4 Restaurant will close temporarily (hopefully–we’ve heard the “temporary” tag before). The plan is stay shuttered throughout the month of July and hope to reopen come the first of August.

Pizza My Heart got its heart broken a while ago (After all, why would you go there when you could go to Pizza Orgasmica?), but the good news is that it will soon be replaced by the ever-intriguing Laiola. More to come on Laiola soon.
