Gil's Cafe, 2608 N. Downer Ave., has closed. According to sources, the cafe, grill and music venue will not reopen, and a few restaurant representatives have already shown interest in moving into the space. The location, which was owned by Katz Properties has been purchased by New Land Development.
Michael "Gil" Rasmussen, the chef, owner and operator of Gil's, says he is closing the restaurant to spend more time with his family.
Gil's opened in 1994 and hosted the annual "Gil Fest" block party every August that featured Texas music and Tex-Mex food.
