This sad news just in: Hatfield's, the ambitious fine-dining restaurant on Melrose from Quinn and Karen Hatfield, will be closing at the end of December. 

A statement from Karen Hatfield is as follows:

Hatfield's will close its doors at the end of December. The restaurant has had an amazing run and we are grateful for all of our loyal patrons throughout the years. This decision is bittersweet for Quinn and I, but we're excited for what's to come. Our efforts will be focused on the opening of our newest restaurant this month, Odys + Penelope, and continuing to deliver a high-quality experience at The Sycamore Kitchen.

Hatfield's opened in 2006 and relocated to its current location in 2010. It received a ton of local and national acclaim, and has appeared frequently on L.A. Weekly's list of 99 Essential restaurants and in our Best Of issues. We are sad to see them go.
