Don was best known for its selection of Asian tapas and focus on fresh and sustainable ingredients.
Highlights from the menu included its ZLB soup dumplings, foie gras smoked duck dunburi, and dino ribs, which the restaurant described as “slow-cooked Flinstone-sized black garlic glazed short ribs.”
“It was an unforgettable journey, and we’re proud to have ended this chapter at the right time. Grateful for everyone who supported us along the way,” added the restaurant in a comment.
The now-closed restaurant officially opened its doors in February 2023.
