Beni Velazquez's Latin Fish Temporarily Closes Until March

That was fast. Former Bar + Bistro chef Beni Velazquez sophomore effort Latin Fish goes on hiatus until March. "Thank you all for visiting Latin Fish during our Sneak Peek Preview," Latin Fish writes on its Facebook page. "We appreciate all of your support and valuable feedback. We look forward to seeing you at our Grand Opening in March. Until then, as always, be sure to stay tuned to this Facebook page for all details. Thanks again everyone-- See you in the Spring!"

Velazquez tells Eater Vegas, "We did a soft opening just to test the waters here in Summerlin. We wish to be one of the best restaurants in Las Vegas so we are focusing all of our efforts on our March grand opening."

Latin Fish took over the Garfield’s space with views of Lake Jacqueline in Desert Shores and opened for New Year’s Eve.
