Chicago Alderman Byron Sigcho-Lopez calls it 'unacceptable' for the Pilsen community to lose a beloved establishment over the mural.

since 1956 closed over the weekend, and according to the local alderman, the closure stems from a mural painted on the side of the building.

"There's no advertisement. There's no name of the restaurant. It's just a mural next to the alley," said Byron Sigcho-Lopez of the 25th Ward. "This actually helps prevent tagging and graffiti and other issues." In a statement, the Chicago Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection said, "Memo's Hot Dogs located at 1447 W. 18th Street does not have a current business license. The establishment did not renew their Retail Food Establishment license which expired on April 15, 2022."
