Chef Jose Garces has closed Distrito, saying the restaurant “just couldn’t support itself financially” during the summertime business lull in University City and rising food costs. Garces said all employees would be offered jobs at his other restaurants.

Chef Jose Garces has closed Distrito, saying the upscale-casual Mexican restaurant “just couldn’t support itself financially” during the summertime business lull in University City and given rising food costs.

Distrito opened in 2008 on two levels at 40th and Chestnut Streets with a bold design, including a wall of lucha libre wrestling masks and VW Beetle convertible seating for four people. In an interview Friday, Garces said he and his managers “came to that hard realization [about the viability of the restaurant] at the very last moment, and our payment obligations to our staff and vendors just required immediate action.”

Garces plans to open Buena Onda locations later this summer in Radnor and in the former Tinto space near 20th and Sansom Streets in Philadelphia.
