City Food Hall Doral, the food hall many locals knew as Shoma Bazaar, closed permanently on Sunday, Nov. 8, according to vendor La Llorona Mexican Food. The taqueria said in an Instagram post that the hall at 9420 NW 41st St. announced the closure that day, effective immediately. The post gave no reason.
The closure came about a year after City Food Hall announced it would take over the former Time Out Market space in South Beach. As of Nov. 9, the company’s location directory still listed the Doral site as open.
Shoma Group’s Masoud and Stephanie Shojaee opened Shoma Bazaar next to their Sanctuary Doral apartment complex in March 2022. It launched with 15 food and drink vendors, including Pubbelly Sushi, Doce Provisions and Shahs of Kabob, plus a 25-foot screen in the main bar and an outdoor beer garden.
La Llorona said it will keep serving at Smorgasburg Miami and Florida Fresh Markets.
Miami Beach project still pending
City Food Hall had planned to open a larger food hall in the roughly 20,000-square-foot space at 1601 Drexel Ave. off Lincoln Road in Miami Beach, with a lineup of chef-run vendors. The company’s Miami Beach page now lists that project for fall 2026 with no specific date. It is unclear whether the Doral closure affects that timeline.
