Taim Mediterranean Kitchen in Reston has permanently closed just four months after its opening.
The New York-based chain, known for its falafel, initially held a grand opening at 11692 Plaza America Drive in Reston on Dec. 6. However, the restaurant suddenly closed this month without warning.
The closure of Taim Mediterranean Kitchen in Reston was not announced on the company’s social media accounts, but Google has marked it as “permanently closed.” When FFXnow contacted its sister restaurant in D.C., a manager confirmed that the closure is permanent.
The owner did not respond to a request for more information by press time.
Taim has 13 eateries along the eastern seaboard, nearly all of which are in New York. There is one location in D.C., and another was planned for Vienna, but that didn’t come to fruition.
A Taïm spokesperson confirmed to FFXnow that all of its Virginia locations closed on April 12.
“It’s with heavy hearts that we had to close our Virginia locations,” the spokesperson said by email. “We are refocusing our efforts to optimize growth in the NYC metro area, and do hope fans of taïm will continue to enjoy our famous falafel and hummus at one of our existing (and coming soon) locations someday soon.”
