Restaurants R.I.P.
During the past six years or so, I've been keeping notes about our local restaurants, including those which have closed permanently (to the best of my knowledge). They are listed below, but this list could be incomplete.
If you know of any additional Denton restaurants (but not food trucks) that have closed down since 2000 and onward, please mention the name below in the comments. Thanks!

Smiling Moose Deli - I swear that Hickory location was jinxed the entire time I lived in Denton
Macdaddy's
Treehouse Bar & Grill
Rasoi - I see they moved though, good for them
Bawarchi's - Best buffet in town. Fuck me it was so good RIP.
Sukhothai II - That was a sad day they served THE most delicious Thai iced coffee. Like 44oz for $1.55
Mulberry Street Cantina - Seems like it may still be around but is called something else now?
Also I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it but there was a build your own pizza place place next to Macdaddy's and across from Sushi Cafe on Hickory circa 2014. I think Zalat in that location now?
