In other restaurant news, on Saturday we reported that Mexicue at 4733 Elm St. in Bethesda had closed after only six months. In a voicemail for calling customers, Mexicue announced that the Bethesda location closed permanently as of Friday, December 30th. The DC location at 1720 14th St NW remains open. Per Mexicue: “It all started with a passion for real, made-from-scratch cooking in a food truck that traversed Manhattan and Brooklyn, embracing the vibrant culture of the city. Today, Mexicue has evolved into a restaurant — and lively bar scene — that does things a little differently than the other guys. A little more boldly, and with a lot more flavor and fun.
