La Luz Mexican Grill in Old Town Fort Collins closed less than a week after reopening following a salmonella outbreak.

The restaurant, located at 200 Walnut St., had reopened to the public on Sept. 11 after the outbreak that affected 30 confirmed patrons forced the eatery to temporarily close for 20 days.

A sign on the front door of the restaurant on Monday afternoon thanked customers for their support and provided contact information for those interested in renting or purchasing the location.

All of the restaurant's windows were covered, and the La Luz website and Facebook page had been deactivated.

The Old Town La Luz had been approved to reopen after a Larimer County Health Department inspection on Sept. 6. The restaurant underwent re-training and employees were required to be tested and cleared of salmonella before they could return to work.

As of last week, the Larimer County Health Department had confirmed 30 salmonella illnesses from the restaurant and hadn't yet pinpointed the source of the outbreak. The health department did not return calls for comment as of Monday afternoon.

La Luz faces a pair of lawsuits filed by patrons who allege they contracted salmonella from the restaurant.

According to court documents filed in Larimer County District Court, one defendant consumed a chicken quesadilla, chips and salsa; the other consumed tacos, chips and salsa.

La Luz had operated a restaurant at the location since 2013. It replaced Caribbean-Italian fusion restaurant called Rasta Pasta.

Other La Luz-branded locations at 140 E. Boardwalk Drive in Fort Collins and 1518 Madison Ave. in Loveland have different owners and will continue to operate as normal, though the Loveland location temporarily closed on Sept. 12 for undisclosed reasons.

Staff say the spot is scheduled to reopen soon, and the Loveland location was rated "good" in its last surprise health inspection on May 3.
