The owners of the beloved Italian joint reportedly sold their business to new owners over the summer. After New Year’s Eve, the location will be “undergoing a complete renovation before a new restaurant opens this spring,” the restaurant wrote on Facebook.

Officials did not say what style of restaurant will be replacing Assaggi’s self-described “casual and elegant bistro setting.”
