Late last summer, it was announced that a local restaurant group would be opening a new dining spot in the South End of Boston, and now we have learned that it is just about ready to debut.
According to a press release, Louis Corner is slated to open its doors on Wednesday, August 6, moving into the space on Tremont Street that had been home to The Butcher Shop. As mentioned in an earlier article, Mazi Food Group (Desnuda Cocina & Bar, Kava Neo-Taverna, Gigi, Ilona) is behind the new place, which will be "an elevated yet timeless American gastropub" with some Irish influences along with regional specialties ranging from the Northeast to the South. The press release indicates that Louis Corner will be open for lunch and dinner, and it will also have a weekend brunch as well.
The Butcher Shop, which closed in the summer of 2023, was one of a handful of restaurants and bars from Barbara Lynch, though all of her dining/drinking spots are now closed.
The address for Louis Corner (which is pronounced Lou-ee) is 552 Tremont Street, Boston, MA, 02118. Its website will be at https://www.louiscorner.com/
[August 8 update: A check on the place indicates that Louis Corner is now open.]
