One month since we had to close our doors.....the picture on the left shows the love and support in the restaurant on the closing night and the left is the day we handed the keys over.

We were given 10 days notice from the council and the building has been standing empty for 1 month. We are saddened that we were not granted the opportunity to trade for this extra time and to keep staff employed.

30 days since the keys were handed over and we are still no further forward with a relocation from the council.

The doors are closed but we don't want to be forgotten

We hope this video captures the amazing atmosphere on our last night. The night was filled with love, laughter and tears.

Until we can eat and meet again............

❤To all our dear customers❤

It is with deep sadness that we have to announce the closure of our much-loved restaurant.
As you are all aware, the building is set to be demolished and yesterday we received our notice from Sunderland City Council.
We need to vacate the premises on Monday 4th April, 10 days from now.

After 31 years we will be closing our doors to you all on Saturday 2nd April.

If anyone has any vouchers still valid, we can refund the amount to you or you may use them before we close next weekend.

A formal statement will be released in due course.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Best Wishes
From us all at Lucianos
