To Our Guests:
After careful consideration, and with an eye to our long-term success as a company, we have made the decision to transform Barrio in Bellevue into a new and exciting special event, private party, and catering venue. The transformation is already underway and effective today, Barrio in Bellevue is closed.
When we launched Purple Café and Wine Bar 10 years ago in Woodinville, we also launched our event and catering business, which has continued to grow and thrive. And, as the economy evolved over the past two years, we discovered that the dining and events marketplace provided an ideal long-term opportunity for our company.
While we will not roll out our full plan until early fall, we can share that our vision is for an engaging and inviting event space that will be available for both large private parties of up to 200 guests, as well as specialty events including wine tastings, cooking classes, and a host of new concepts that our team is already developing.
And, of course, parties and events at the new venue will feature choices from all of our extensive menus offered at Barrio, Purple and Lot No. 3.
As difficult as it is to close a restaurant, we are confident that it is the right path forward and are very optimistic about the reception the new venue will receive when we introduce it this fall.
We are so appreciative of all our guests who have enjoyed Barrio in Bellevue over the past two years and invite you to both visit us at Barrio in Seattle for some of your favorite dishes and to return when our event space is unveiled this fall.

Thanks again,
Larry Kurofsky
Owner, Heavy Restaurant Group (Purple, Barrio, Lot No. 3)
