Two longtime St. Paul restaurants are closing before the end of the month. Fasika, which has been serving Ethiopian favorites for the past 22 years out of a storefront on Snelling Avenue, will close up shop after service on Saturday, June 17. The restaurant, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment, posted simply on its social media pages that it would close and thanked customers. And Alary’s, which has been operating in downtown St. Paul since 1949, will close after service on Sunday, June 18. Current owner Nick Peterson has sold the building, and the new owners will close Alary’s and rebrand it.
