We have been discussing it between ourselves for a few days, and decided that we will never know. Some information is just not available.

are you inferring extortion?

Given the fact that at least one popular restaurant in Zihua simply closed a few years ago rather than submit to extortion, how would you interpret the owner's statement?

Personally, I would rather not infer. What is the old silly saying? "When you ASSUME, you make an ASS out of U and ME."

Does anyone know the reason? Did Daniel's Restaurant close because of organized crime threats? There could other reasons "beyond [their] control that plague this beautiful port" that forced them to close.

Does anyone know what’s happening at the Daniel’s location?

On FB today, owner Dani explains that Daniel's has closed " due to circumstances beyond our control that plague this beautiful port city."

That can likely mean only one thing.

They were threatened with total annihilation from Jewish Space Lasers skillfully operated by Marjorie Taylor Greene?

Here's the entire message from Dani.

Queridos amigos, clientes y familia de Daniels:

Hoy queremos decir gracias, una palabra que se queda corta frente a todo lo que ustedes nos han dado durante estos 27 años. Hoy cerramos nuestras puertas por razones ajenas a nosotros que atormentan a este bello puerto y aunque este adiós nos duele, nos vamos con el corazón lleno de recuerdos que llevaremos para siempre.

Nos quedan grabadas las noches de música, los cumpleaños celebrados, las risas compartidas, los brindis, los bailes y esos momentos inolvidables donde más de uno terminó como borracho. Cada instante vivido aquí fue especial porque ustedes le dieron vida a este lugar. Ustedes hicieron que Daniels no fuera solo un restaurante, sino un hogar lleno de historias y amistad.

Lamentamos profundamente no poder despedirnos personalmente de cada uno de ustedes. Nos hubiera gustado darles las gracias cara a cara, como lo merecen. Pero aunque no podamos abrazarlos en persona, sepan que los llevamos con nosotros: sus palabras, su cariño, su presencia constante y su apoyo incondicional nos acompañarán siempre.

A todos los que caminaron junto a nosotros este largo viaje —clientes, amigos, músicos, colaboradores y quienes hicieron de este espacio una comunidad hermosa— gracias por tanto. Gracias por cada visita, cada sonrisa, cada conversación, cada momento que compartimos. Sin ustedes, no habríamos llegado tan lejos ni vivido tan intensamente.

Hoy nos despedimos con nostalgia, pero también con un agradecimiento inmenso. Cerramos un capítulo, pero no cerramos el corazón.

Ojalá la vida nos vuelva a encontrar en este bello Zihuatanejo que todos amamos.
Con todo nuestro cariño y gratitud eterna,

Daniels by Dani.
