The closure is timed with the expiration of the restaurant's lease and comes soon after the company's co-founder, Nick Kokonas, departed. Fire was conceived as an affordable tasting menu experience centered around flames, utilizing the hearth from the previously closed Roister. Despite this closure, Alinea Group continues to operate other well-known establishments in the area, including Next Restaurant and the Aviary.
