Posting on their Facebook page, the restaurant said: "It is with mixed emotions that, after seven years, we announce the sale of Riccis Tapas and Cicchetti.

"We have decided it is time to move onto the next leg of our gastronomic adventure and to enjoy a little more quality time with friends and family.

"Running Riccis Tapas has taken us on an amazing journey and we are delighted to take away some unforgettable memories and thank all our team, suppliers and our loyal customers for their support and friendship over the years.

"However it's been an incredibly demanding few years and we are staring to feel the pace, so we now look forward to slowing down a little and focusing our time and development on our first restaurant Ricci's Place, as well as looking towards the possibility of a new venture in 2020."
