'With heavy hearts': Jacksonville's last Burrito Gallery abruptly closes

After more than nine years, Burrito Gallery at Brooklyn Station closed abruptly — ending the fast-casual "Jax Mex" restaurant concept's 20-year presence in Jacksonville. Signs taped to the doors on June 23 announced the closure of the restaurant at 90 Riverside Ave., #601, in Brooklyn Station near downtown, and thanked customers for their patronage. "Thank you for years of patronage. With heavy hearts Burrito Gallery is now closed. We have truly enjoyed serving our community, providing memories, great food and margaritas! We thank you. BG Family," the signs read. The owners couldn't be reached immediately for comment. Sorry, we're closed: Restaurants we've lost in Jacksonville in 2025 The restaurant's food service license status was listed as "delinquent, active" with an expiration date of June 1, Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) online records showed. Burrito Gallery was known for its Southwestern-style cuisine, which it described as "Jax Mex." The Brooklyn Station restaurant, which included a rooftop dining area, was the last of what was once four locations of the local chain that debuted in 2005 in Jacksonville's downtown. The Brooklyn neighborhood restaurant opened in January 2016. Since November 2023, three other Burrito Gallery locations closed: the original restaurant at 21 E. Adams St., in February 2024, after 18 years; 300 Beach Blvd., No. 1 in Jacksonville Beach, in November 2023, after seven years; and most recently, 5016 Gate Parkway, in Gateway Village at Town Center on the Southside, in March, after about five years.
