Austin's Red Ash appears to reopen months after fire shut down restaurant
A downtown Italian restaurant appears to have risen from the ashes of a September fire that forced its closure.
Red Ash on 303 Colorado St. is now taking reservations on OpenTable. The restaurant's website also has a "now open" banner at the top of its home page.
The September fire was an "accidental blaze started somewhere in the oven and hood ventilation system and was contained to the kitchen in the restaurant built around a wood-burning grill," the Statesman reported in January. The building was evacuated, and no one sustained injuries.
Red Ash originally planned to remain closed only for the rest of the week, but it hadn't opened its doors since the fire.
