In a social media post on Monday afternoon, El Remedio said they hoped to reopen soon and would be available through their new food truck in the Alamo Ranch area during limited hours.
According to one comment on the post, the restaurant said the summer heat and the landlord changing the locks as reasons for the closure.
KSAT reached out to El Remedio for comment, but we have not yet heard back.
This is not a new trend: many local restaurants, such as Acadiana Cafe, have closed their doors this year, and most blame rising costs.
