"After about 41 years in business, Don Ramon’s Mexican Restaurant in SoMa closed permanently on March 31; the Ramirez family, second-generation owners, said they couldn’t reach a rent agreement after the landlord allegedly raised the rent from $10,000 to $15,000, and in a message thanking customers they wrote that they fought long and hard to save the restaurant but ultimately couldn’t." - Dianne de Guzman
