Big news in Boston’s restaurant world - Sel de la Terre, the casual French eatery by New France LLC (which operates L’Espalier) has closed. If you're devastated by the news, take note that the Natick location remains open. Eater broke the news, and received the following statement from the company:

"Effective immediately, we have closed the Back Bay location of Sel de la Terre. We are committed to helping relocate our staff whether that be within the company or elsewhere. We are eternally grateful to our talented team members and loyal guests who have supported us over the past several years. This does not affect the Sel de la Terre location in the Natick Mall which will continue to operate. All gift cards and promotions will be honored at the Natick location."

The Back Bay restaurant first opened in 2008.
