Dormant ‘sNice Could Be Getting Spicy

By now, we’ve gotten all too familiar with the site of the dormant ‘sNice space at 315 5th Avenue (at 3rd Street), which shuttered in December 2014.

Although there had been rumors of a Mexican restaurant moving in, today was the first time we saw evidence: A sign for El Habanero Tex-Mex was spotted by our neighbor Meghan Von Rembow.

We’ve yet to locate a contact at the company (there are similarly named restaurants throughout the U.S.), so we will get back to you when we have more information about an opening date. One thing we do know? They’re hoping to serve booze, as, according to the agenda for an upcoming meeting from Community Board 6, they’re applying for a liquor license.

Until then, it’s out with the quinoa salad, and in with the refried beans.
