Scottsdale has one less spot for seafood now that Old Town's Crab & Mermaid is officially closed for business.

Though the restaurant hasn't made an official announcement, a representative from Crab & Mermaid's management group Square One Concepts confirmed with New Times earlier this week that the new-ish seafood spot is no more. The restaurant had only been open since March of last year.

Fans of C&M will be happy to know that the recently deployed Crab & Mermaid food truck is still available for private events and will be attending Valley food truck events year-round despite the closure. Square One Concepts also confirmed that it will be announcing a new concept and menu next month.

For information about the food truck, visit the Crab & Mermaid website or Facebook page.
