"Sprawling downtown French restaurant Le Politique is officially, permanently closed to make way for a new restaurant from lauded chef Michael Mina. A representative from Le Politique’s restaurant group New Waterloo confirmed the closure at 110 San Antonio Street in the Second Street district. Le Politique opened in September 2017 to generally mixed reviews. It offered French fare like trout almondine, fondue, rich desserts, and a raw bar, as well as a next-door cafe that served coffee and pastries. It closed briefly in 2018 for a renovation and menu revamp, then closed again in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and never reopened. A representative from New Waterloo confirmed to Eater that Le Politique can be considered permanently closed." - Erin Russell
