Greetings. Sazón will be temporarily closed for an unforeseen renovation due to a small fire that was contained in an upstairs area, away from the dining room and kitchen.

We are sorry we cannot accommodate you at this time but will announce on our website when we are scheduled to reopen. We apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to seeing you at Sazón in the near future.

Sincerely,

The Sazón Team
