Bracco World Cafe to close
Days after sister restaurant Starz announced a closure, Bracco World Cafe is shutting down Dec. 31 as well.
“It’s very, very sudden,” a manager at Bracco said. “It’s very, very new. We just announced today. We really don’t know much.”
Both restaurants are owned by TNT Hospitality, which also owns Spezia.
Bracco, an island-themed original concept, opened in 2006. Starz followed in 2012.
Starz also is closing Dec. 31.
Information about how to handle gift cards is still being finalized. TNT also operates Spezia in Sioux Falls — which is staying open — Spezia in Omaha and restaurants at Bridges Bay in the Okoboji area, including another Bracco location.
Editor’s note: The status of gift cards has been changed since this article was updated Wednesday morning. We’ll update again once TNT Hospitality finalizes its plans.
