Major Austin Food Trucks Close This Month, And More Austin Restaurant Closings to Know
In a fast-paced place like Austin, restaurants come and go all the time. Know of an Austin area restaurant closure that's not on this list? Drop us a line at austin@ East Side King
Following 15 years of service, the East Side King will close its South Lamar store on June 7; its food truck closed on May 31. In a post on Instagram, Paul Qui, East Side King's embattled chef-owner, noted, 'This isn't goodbye but see ya l8r sk8r.' The Austin American-Statesman reports that East Side King will continue to offer catering, and Qui will open Roselle Pizzeria in the location sometime in September. Much of the kitchen team will remain. Red Bud Ice House
June 1 marked a big goodbye for this spot, which had only been open for a year. In an Instagram post, it promised cheap burgers and beer at a final blowout. Ben Edgerton, owner and operator, told the Austin Business Journal that the space had struggled to generate enough sales to stay open. With its large outdoor space and the approaching summer weather, they decided not to push through another season. MaieB Hospitality, which opened Red Bud and owned it until recently, pulled out as the business began to face financial challenges. The group also abruptly closed Little Ola's Biscuits in January. Allday Pizza
It's not a goodbye, it's an upgrade. Allday Pizza has closed its food trailer to focus on its brick-and-mortar locations in Hyde Park and Tarrytown, it announced in an Instagram post. It sent thanks to the team at Daydreamer, where the trailer was parked for years. In return, Daydreamer commented with its love and thanks for all the delicious pizza that Allday provided during its tenure. Wee's Cozy Kitchen
This Malaysian food spot will close its location inside Royal Blue Grocer on Congress as of June 13, owner Wee Fong Ehlers revealed on Instagram. Ehlers says she'll be taking a vacation and then beginning the hunt for her next restaurant location.
