Two years after it reopened, Old Town restaurant The Tasting Room (1602 King Street) is closing — this time for good.
The restaurant featured an extensive cocktail and wine menu as well as dishes like skillet cornbread and hearth-baked goat cheese.
The Tasting Room had the same ownership as Lorien Hotel & Spa, and the closure comes after the hotel transitioned to Archer Hotel earlier this year.
The Tasting Room had previously teased updates about a possible new location, but said in a post yesterday that the restaurant was now permanently closed.
