After nearly two decades in business, celebrated Long Beach Italian staple Michael’s on Naples will be closing its doors.
The restaurant, located at 5620 E. Second St., announced on its Instagram page over the weekend that it will close on Sept. 30 after 18 years in business.
“We are profoundly grateful for every visit, every shared meal, and every memory created around our tables,” read the post, which went on to thank the staff including its well known general manager Massimo Aronne, who had become the face of the restaurant.
There was no reason given for the closure in the post and calls to restaurant representatives were not returned by press time.
But the post also included additional information from the restaurant that read, “as we pass the torch, we take comfort in knowing the same spirit and philosophy — centered on quality, integrity, and community — will live on. The company stepping forward shares our commitment to excellence, and we trust they will honor the values that have defined Michael’s on Naples for the past 18 years.”
There was no mention of who would be taking over or if the restaurant would reopen under a different name.
“Though this chapter is ending, the love, laughter, and unforgettable moments we’ve shared will always remain,” the post continued.
Opened in 2007, the restaurant was on the leading edge of the farm-to-table concept. It quickly became a popular staple in the Long Beach dining scene and was highly rated on food sites like Zagat thanks to dishes like its lasagna, pizzas and seafood.
Customers bemoaned the closing on the restaurant’s Instagram page.
“Thank you for the wonderful memories, Michael’s will be missed!!,” one post read.
“We have celebrated so many events at Michael’s: Mother’s Day, New Years, birthdays and anniversaries. And that doesn’t even count the random walk over to see if we could get a table or sit in the bar. You all will be missed tremendously,” another customer wrote.
