The old Counter Café, I wondered how long that would sit empty.

They closed at the end of 2020.

Funky Restaurant Maria’s Taco Xpress Is Closing, and It’s Selling Its Giant Statue Too

They still have a food truck at 1210 Barton Springs Road though.

New Latin American Live-Fire Restaurant Opens in Downtown Austin With Caviar-Topped Sopes

Quote:

Downtown Austin restaurant Ember Kitchen & Subterra — touting Latin American live-fire cooking — will open this week. The 800 West Cesar Chavez Street, Suite PP110 space will debut on Wednesday, February 15. Its basement bar Subterra Agave Bar opened earlier this month on February 1.

This space at the Seaholm Power Plant was vacant since February 2019.

Someone’s taking over the old Austin Java space at City Hall.

I'll never forget working at Austin Java CH in 2010. Giant cockroaches in kitchen, rude ass CH staff, and some idiot named tIFfaNy who fired me because I wouldn't be her token gay BFF. lmao.

It can only get better from here!

Ate at Nido the other day.... I'd recommend the bar as a great place to grab a drink and a view of downtown at night. Can't really recommend the restaurant at its prices.

Hanover Republic Square has a tenant for it's retail space. Right now it has massive coming soon poster and mentions Lobos Hospitality. I found this recent article. Looks like a restaurant and speakeasy bar.

I've also been walking by the old Stereotype by W 6th. under construction recently after being closed since COVID started. Unsure what's going there or if they're reopening.

Lastly, Trulucks' is moving to the new 3rd and Colorado tower. Looks like it'll be both the 1st and 2nd floors of retail space.

Nice update on Truluck's. We'd all been wondering. But also at least a year or two away, yeah?
