The restaurant industry in Edmonton sees many exciting openings, but it can also be a fickle place, and we’ve seen that with many of our favourite Edmonton restaurants closing recently.

For a number of reasons, even the best and most popular spots close, sometimes without any warning. There have been some sad closures recently that we will miss for a long time, and hope to see them reopen again sometime soon.

Luckily, there are still SO many exceptional restaurants to visit in YEG.
