Columbia, South Carolina, just took a hit to its culinary scene as the beloved Uberrito Fresh Mex has officially closed its doors for good. Located at 275 Park Terrace Drive near Bower Parkway, the casual eatery has been a go-to spot for burrito lovers since it opened just three years ago, marking its spot as the first South Carolina location of the Texas-based brand.
If you’re thinking about where to grab a bite this week, you might want to reconsider that Uberrito run. The restaurant is now listed as “permanently closed” on Google, leaving fans to wonder what happened. To add to the mystery, attempts to call the location resulted in silence, as the phone number listed was inactive.
Just to confirm the news, a reporter swung by the restaurant and noticed signs plastered on the windows announcing that the “restaurant closed today.” However, locals chimed in on Facebook, claiming those signs had been up for at least a week! So, what was going on behind the scenes? Only the folks involved really know, but it sure doesn’t look good.
Uberrito Fresh Mex charmed locals with a menu full of mouth-watering options from burritos to bowls, nachos, and salads. With a cafeteria-style setup, customers enjoyed the freedom to customize their meals, picking their ingredients just as they liked. Unfortunately, it seems that the popular dining experience will no longer be part of Columbia’s food landscape.
The Harbison area, where Uberrito thrived, is known for its vibrant retail and dining scene, featuring nearby businesses like Walmart, Academy Sports + Outdoors, and Blaze Pizza. Residents of Columbia will certainly miss popping into Uberrito for a quick lunch or a casual dinner, but luckily, there are still plenty of options to choose from in the bustling area.
For those who are wondering whether Uberrito might make a return, the company’s official website only lists locations in the Houston, Texas area right now, so it looks like Columbia won’t be getting another shot anytime soon. Could it be a sign of changing times in the restaurant industry? The closure might give other new eateries a chance to step up to the plate and offer Columbia’s residents something fresh and exciting.
As the news of the closure settles in, it raises questions about what other dining experiences Columbia residents might want to explore next. From food trucks to local bistros, the city has a lot to offer. After all, the local food scene is always evolving, and who knows – the next big hit could be right around the corner!
For those who enjoyed Uberrito, it might be time to say a heartfelt goodbye. Maybe gather some friends and reminisce about all those tasty burritos and custom nachos that made the short drive a worthwhile trip. The memories will linger on, but the restaurant itself has decided to take a permanent exit. Here’s hoping that Columbia’s other eateries can continue to bring the same joy and deliciousness!
