Hugely disappointing news for the town
Around 30 staff have lost their jobs following the shock closure of a Beeston restaurant, just seven months after it opened at the flagship £50m Beeston Square development. One of the workers at Ottimo said he was "heartbroken" by the news which came out of the blue.
There has been no formal announcement about the restaurant closing. Ottimo was opened by Ross Considine and Nick Parker, who also run Saint Property Services. They first ventured into the hospitality sector in 2020 when Sans Patrie opened in Alfreton Road. Nottinghamshire Live has contacted them but hasn't had a response.
Joe Corr, half of Nottingham food blogging duo Guys Who Dine, said: "We're totally shocked to hear of the sudden closure of Ottimo. A lot of work and investment had gone into the premises to create a beautiful space from a shell. We thought the food, service and location would be very successful. It's not only a great loss for Beeston but for the hard working staff and so close to Christmas too.
