Coszcal de Allende, a South Brooklyn Mexican restaurant open for more than a decade, is hosting its last day of service on Sunday, July 30. In January, the Bay Ridge restaurant announced the closure, citing issues with its landlord. At the time, they hadn’t set a last day, but the restaurant hinted that it would be “soon.” “Thanks for the wonderful years. Another mom and pop closed,” the post stated.
Eater critic Robert Sietsema frequently included Coszcal de Allende on a list of best Mexican restaurants in the city, known for enchiladas, in the style of those from San Miguel de Allende, and called out its sopa panza as a dish of the year back in 2019. In 2021, Thrillist reported that Fabiola Juárez, the daughter of the owners of Coszcal de Allende, had been cooking for her tamale pop-up out of the restaurant. Eater has reached out for more information about the potential for relocation plans.
