Winters tapas restaurant saying adiós
A local Chinese eatery is next, and I have updates on the new Davis Chipotle and Woodland Bad Bakers
Ficelle, the destination-worthy tapas restaurant in downtown Winters, will soon close.
“All Good Things Must Come to an End,” it posted on Instagram. “After 21 incredible years, our restaurant story is coming to an end.”
The eatery opened in 2005. It’s at 5 E. Main St., Suite C, in Winters.
It will be open this week, on Thursday and Friday, “plus a few special days in March,” it announced. It was closed for the month of January, noting they were “taking a long break.”
Ficelle (pronounced FEE-sell) is popular for its addictive family recipes and house-made sangria. It isn’t just Spanish cuisine: “We incorporate food from our Spanish heritage, the Mexican & California cuisines prevalent in Winters, and any other type (of) food that seems interesting that crosses our paths,” its website says.
Its casual, cozy atmosphere under a large oak tree encourages community. Last time my husband and I ate there, we shared a table with another set of diners because it was so crowded.
