A Miami bar and restaurant known for its craft cocktails and the Asian-inspired dishes that pair best with them has announced its closing date.<\/p>\n
A haven for house parties and live music, with brick walls and church pews for seating, Baby Jane is closing its doors at 500 Brickell Avenue. The venue announced the news on social media, saying that it was unable to continue its lease.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re beyond grateful for every late night, every cocktail, every friendship, and every person who helped make this place what it became,\u201d said an Instagram post. \u201cWhile we hoped to continue this next chapter, we unfortunately couldn\u2019t come to terms on extending the lease.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTo our staff, regulars, friends, and everyone who ever walked through our doors \u2014 thank you for being part of the story.\u201d<\/p>\n
The creation of Jason Odio and chef Michael Beltran of Ariete and former Opium Group honcho Roman Jones, the bar opened in 2016, quickly evolving into a Brickell hangout. Cocktails like the spicy passionfruit margarita, the pineapple-and-mezcal Bebito and Lavender Fields Forever (Tito\u2019s and Lavender Cordial Lemon) kept the conversations flowing. Asian favorites \u2014 dumplings and yakitori, rice and ramen and bao buns \u2014 made those drinks go down even more smoothly. And live music and DJs set the tone for upbeat nights out.<\/p>\n
Miami fans were upset to learn their home away from home was shutting down.<\/p>\n
\u201cDevastated is an understatement,\u201d one poster lamented on Instagram.<\/p>\n
\u201cCountless, and I mean COUNTLESS, memories with friends, family, colleagues and even strangers were made here,\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n
Another poster summed it up succinctly: \u201cThis one hurts.\u201d<\/p>\n
There\u2019s still time to grab one last drink at Baby Jane: The venue closes on May 30.<\/p>\n
