"A triple whammy. All three of Agricole Hospitality’s restaurants in East Downtown closed on Saturday, September 28. Agricole partners and owners, including culinary director Vincent Huynh, chef Ryan Pera, and beverage director Morgan Weber, announced on social media that they decided to close the restaurant after learning about the expansion of US Interstate 45, which will require eminent domain acquisitions. “We are incredibly proud of our talented and dedicated team, whose hard work and passion brought good times and great food to all of our guests,” they noted. The team is now working to connect staff with resources and assistance following the closures. Vinny’s Pizza opened in 2018 and has been Agricole’s longest-enduring restaurant in that area." - Brittany Britto Garley
