Saying goodbye is hard, especially when it’s to your favorite restaurant. Unfortunately, Dallas has had to bid farewell to a few eateries this month. From a bistro and cozy wine shop to a beloved sushi joint, here are the latest restaurant closures to know about.
City Works Eatery and Pour House
This brewpub closed its Frisco location earlier this month. Since opening in 2017, City Works Eatery and Pour House was a go-to spot for craft beer and good pub food. However, challenges in the restaurant industry ultimately led to its closure in Dallas. The chain will continue operating its existing locations, with potential plans for expansion.
Pangea Restaurant & Bar
On January 29, chef Kevin Ashade announced the closure of Pangea via Instagram. While he didn’t specify a reason, chef Ashade wrote, “Though this chapter has come to a close, I am excited to continue serving the community through catering.” Pangea was lauded for its standout seafood and meat dishes, so its closure is sure to leave a void for loyal patrons.
Sushi Marquee at the Star
After eight years, this beloved sushi restaurant has closed its doors, citing rising costs, payroll and rent as major factors, according to CultureMap Dallas. Before shuttering, Sushi Marquee was a favorite for its quality sushi, sashimi, rolls and warm dishes served in a lively casual setting—so it’s no surprise that its departure stings for many.
Trova Wine + Market
This under-the-radar wine shop and bistro abruptly announced its closure on January 18 via Instagram. While no reason was cited, the heartfelt post read, “The time has come to turn off our lights for the last time. Thank you for making these five years so meaningful—we’ve cherished every moment with you. With all our love, Trova.”
