A popular Italian restaurant now announces an unexpected closure after nine years in business, according to an email sent to customers.
Italian Eatery, located in south Minneapolis, Minnesota, told its long-time customers that it planned to shut its doors.
The beloved restaurant, also known as ie, also plans to close its sister restaurant un dito, known for its Sicilian seaside street food, per The US Sun.
They have not announced a closing date but are expected to close between late May and mid-June, according to Bring Me The News.
“As we prepare to close our doors at ie and un dito, we’d like to extend a heartfelt invitation for you to join us for our final months of service,” an email to customers from Carrara $ Co. read.
“Gather with us at the table and let us reminisce over the incredible memories we’ve created together and cherish the moments shared over the past nine years.”
Italian Eatery has been a popular spot since its opening in 2016 and is known for its full-service drinks and dining near Lake Nokomis.
Un dito is a 400-square-foot space that specializes in sips and snacks or afternoon gatherings like you would see in Italy, according to its website.
The restaurant’s “Last Supper” reservations will be released every week and shared in weekly newsletters, according to its website.
“As always, we will continue to reserve walk-in tables at both ie + un dito for our beloved neighborhood,” the announcement read, according to the outlet.
Carrara & Co. also owns due, a focacceria and Italian market in St. Paul, Minnesota that the company calls “Italian Eatery’s spawn, aka quirky little brother,” according to its website.
Despite the Minneapolis closures, due will remain open.
“I’m pleased to inform you that all other Carrara & Co operations remain unaffected, including Due Focacceria, and we are even expanding our services,” according to a statement, reported by NBC affiliate KARE.

A grocery chain with 900 outlets now makes an unexpected closure in Illinois, leaving customers mourning its loss.
A Save-A-Lot store in Rockford, Illinois, will be closing its doors for good on May 20.
Customers were informed of the sudden news by a sign on the door telling them to go to another branch for their goods.
However, locals are concerned as a store that opened in February 2015 propped up the neighborhood following the loss of a Schnucks store.
The Save-A-Lot location not only provided jobs but also a budget store.
Following the closure, shoppers are going to be left with fewer options with one resident saying, “We have no choices.”
“This is going to be a hard hit for the people in this neighborhood…this community…and this side of town…we have nothing,” one shopper told WREX.
“I’m not happy because they are a less expensive store, you get more for your money.”
“Schnucks is on the higher end, and Aldi is higher than they used to be.”
The shopper noted that options in the area are limited with the nearest grocery stores being Aldi which is around two miles away, and Schnucks, two and a half miles away.
“We have no choices, we have dollar stores – they have competitive prices, but they don’t carry a lot of stuff you can’t feed a family on that, you need stores like this.”
“I feel like we’re a dry county when it comes to groceries and it’s really hard,” another shopper added.
“I’m kind of heartbroken about it. It’s a shame it’s going to hurt a lot of people.”
