Hi folks, a big thank you to everyone for your ongoing support! Over two hundred people donated to our Go Fund Me campaign for a total of almost $15,000. Thanks to the fundraiser and your enthusiastic patronage before we closed, we've begun to pay our debts to our local suppliers. We still have a ways to go, so if you're still thinking about donating, please do! Our fundraiser is ongoing. Thank you and please share!

We were featured on CBS news last night in a feature about restaurants forced to close due to rent increases.

A vegan restaurant that opened more than 40 years ago is about to serve its last meal due to rising rent, and more competition.

Angelica Kitchen was, for many generations of the young, hungry, and weird, a gateway to New York City.

Chef Salvador and his famous lasagna. Sal has been here for 25 years. He's raised his kids while working here. In addition to cheffing he also takes care of ordering and stocking as the restaurant's steward, a big undertaking to say the least. Today is the last day for Sal's special lasagna, a true labor of love. You won't want to miss this.

Hi folks, this is Leslie, Angelica’s owner. Although we are still open throughout this week - Friday 7th being our last day serving you, I wanted to reach out now to everyone to say a huge thank you -- we're bowled over by your response so far. From Go Fund Me donations to our jampacked restaurant to all of the shout outs on Instagram, we're so appreciative. Thank you thank you for all of your love and support.

Also, please stop by our memorabilia sale and auction this Saturday 2:00 PM (4/8) and Sunday 11:00 AM (4/9) with every thing Angelica - from chopsticks to sculpture to food processors. Lots of fun surprises you may want to peruse and tempt! You cannot even imagine the treasures we are offering!

Sending this with gratefulness and affection
~Leslie
