Neruda Restaurant

There was a lot of love and magic in the old place, but our "gem of a restaurant" is no more.  Our last day of operation was Valentine's Day 2012.  Now I'm retired from the restaurant business and while I have a lot more time to pursue other interests, I will always miss Neruda, the staff, and my customers.

I want to thank all my wonderful customers for their patronage over the years.  I have made many friends over the 14 plus years that Neruda operated in Edwardsville, and it is my hope that we will still be able to spend time together, here or there, over the upcoming years.

I also want to thank my fantastic staff for their skill, dedication and support.  You guys did the heavy lifting and made Neruda your second home.  I'll never forget you.

To all, best wishes, and don't be strangers.
