Last night a former employee of Lorenzo’s, a casual Latin fusion cantina opened in a former garage at 19 Wyckoff Ave in Bushwick, informed us that the restaurant has abruptly closed. He was among a number of the employees of the six-months old restaurant who were let go.

When we stopped by at the restaurant, a man on the premises referred us to the property manager, Cayuga Capital Management, who confirmed that Lorenzo’s is closed and will not be coming back.

Representative of Cayuga who is also the landlord of Lorenzo’s further informed us that a new restaurant will open in Lorenzo’s spot within four to eight weeks. “We have a new restaurant opportunity that is very exciting,” the rep told us. “It will be a different vibe and a different feel.”
