[dropcap size=big]C[/dropcap]hef Ray Garcia's lauded B.S. Taqueria will shutter its downtown L.A. location in April after failing to reach an agreement on a new lease in the rampantly redeveloping sector of town, according to a company statement. The news was first reported by Eater LA.
The Alta California taco shop's lease at its 7th Street location will not be renewed when it expires April 13, and there is no new location as of yet. The company cited "a change in the real estate landscape" for the scheduled closure.
"After this date, the restaurant intends to serve guests through catering and events, including its taco and churro carts, while looking for a new home," B.S. Taqueria's statement said.
"Chef Ray Garcia and his team love being a part of the DTLA community and invite Angelenos to continue to enjoy the taqueria in the coming weeks," the restaurant said. "Broken Spanish and the other B.S. Taqueria at Staples Center will not be impacted by this change."
