Lillo and Ella in the Heights Officially Closed

The Heights restaurant Lillo and Ella closed Wednesday, September 16, 2015 after only 16 months in business. According to a press release sent out by chef/owner Kevin Naderi, he received an offer too good to turn down for the space. And that he hopes to devote more attention to his other concept, Roost. Rumors are swirling as to who made the offer and what to expect for the Heights location, one of which is that the new incoming restaurant will be called The Barking Pig and that papers were filed last week with TABC.
