A Parasole Restaurant Holdings mainstay in Edina’s 50th and France neighborhood shuttered its doors this weekend.
Mozza Mia, a wood-fired pizza restaurant at 3910 W. 50th St., served its last customers (closed effectively March 12) after six and a half years in business.
“We closed because the current operating environment doesn’t favor restaurants and because Mozza Mia was losing money,” the company said in a statement.
Parasole will honor gift certificates at its other restaurants, which include Manny’s Steakhouse, Salut, Chino Latino, Libertine and Burger Jones, among others.

While that third row is pretty small, it does give you an easier-to-park and less expensive alternative to a three-row midsize SUV. If this is an appealing option for you, check out the 2022 Kia Sorento and 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan.
