A much-loved Italian restaurant in the heart of Harrogate has announced that it will be closing its doors for good this weekend.

In a statement on social media, it said: “It is with a heavy heart and immense sadness that we have to announce that Sasso will be closing its doors.
“Our last day of service will be Saturday, June 28, marking the end of a truly incredible 27-year journey.
“This decision was not made lightly, and as we look back, our hearts are filled with gratitude.
"We would like to extend a very special thank you to Domenico, our longest-standing team member, for his unwavering dedication, incredible support, and all he has given to Sasso over the years.
"To every single team member who has contributed to Sasso – past and present – thank you for being a part of our story.
