San Francisco Restaurant Closures Since January 1, 2009

Azie
A diverse spectrum of restaurants closed across San Francisco in the first two months of the year, ranging from the celebrated Azie (opened in December of 1999, and now only available as a private event space through its next-door sister restaurant, LuLu) to now-you-see-it-now-you-don't Midpoint, open barely three months in the late-lamented O'Reilly's Holy Grail space on Polk. See's Candies, up the block, not a restaurant but a neighborhood landmark (and nice for stopping off for a sweet treat after snagging a seat at Swan Oyster Depot next door) had been in its tiny space since 1936.

Some spaces are already under construction for new places (Let's Be Frank plans to open an indoor spot at the old Hahn's Hibachi III space on Steiner -- the other Hahn's remain in operation -- and Laurel's Cuban will become Otoro, a Japanese place); the fate of others remains unknown.

Not that we're feeling ghoulish, but look for further monthly updates on SF restaurant closings in this space.
