Ensō, the Japanese-meets-Southern spot that quickly became a Clifton staple, has closed its doors for good. Just months after reopening from a fire and earning national buzz—including a James Beard nod for chef Lawrence Weeks—the restaurant is shutting down following Weeks’ departure.

What does this mean for local dining, and where will fans go next for that unique blend of flavors? Let’s talk about the impact and what’s next for the space! #Food #LouisvilleEats #LocalFood
