An upscale restaurant and wine bar in Beacon Hill that is known in part for its Italian fare is shutting down.
According to an article from the Beacon Hill Times, Bin 26 Enoteca on Charles Street is closing its doors, with a note within the website of the dining spot saying the following:
After 18 years of serving guests we are opening our doors Saturday June 1st for the final time. Please join us in this moment of transition for both us and our many dear and cherished regulars alike. After a 4 decade long career, Azita Bina-Seibel is retiring to spend more time traveling the world and with loved ones and friends. We look forward to celebrating with you over this next month. Please email us any inquiries or come walk in for a seat at the bar. A deep thank you to all our many devoted regulars, and guests who have patronized Bina family hospitality group restaurants for 4 decades.
In addition to Bin 26 Enoteca, Azita Bina-Seibel and Babak Bina's Bina Family Hospitality group also runs JM Curley, Bogies place, and The Wigshop.
The address for Bin 26 Enoteca is 26 Charles Street, Boston, MA, 02114. Its website can be found at https://www.bin26.com/
[May 30 update: A licensing board hearing page within the City of Boston website indicates that Zurito is planning to open in the space where Bin 26 Enoteca currently resides, and that Nader Asgari-Tari (who is a managing partner at Bin 26 Enoteca) is the manager listed; in addition, a source tells us (via a page within corp.sec.state.ma.us) that Jamie Bissonette and BCB3 Hospitality LLC may have a connection to the proposed spot.]
