Sadly, owner Nicolas Quinones recently announced that Woodfire Grill would close after the restaurant's final dinner service on Wednesday, May 20th.

But on Monday, May 18th, you can join Quinones and nine former Woodfire chefs for what's billed as a Woodfire Grill Family Reunion, featuring a nine course tasting menu with optional wine pairings.

Conspicuous is his absence is Kevin Gillespie, who will be out of the country.
