When they tore down the building on Eastlake that held Porta, Hines, and Bandoleone, the neighborhood was upset. Porta closed, and Hines stuck around for a while in case the rumors that they would be able to move back in were true, but now they’ve gone to Canada. And Bandoleone, they moved to Fremont, where we could still visit them and remember what it was like to live somewhere with restaurants.

But now, thanks to the Fremont bridge construction and the resulting great big fence in front of the restaurant, Danielle Philippa is closing up shop [P-I]. If you want one last taste of their yummy Latin food, you’ve got today and tomorrow to give it a shot. After Sunday, the restaurant will close “indefinitely.”
