It is with great sadness that we have to inform you that we had to close Alebrije, low sales and high rent cost, we were just not able to stay open. We would like to thank everyone that has supported us! We have met so many great people and made lots of friends. We have plans in the future to open a new location, and we will keep you all updated. Once again thanks to everyone.
