Vancouver Italian restaurant quietly closes after 14 years

Yaletown has seen plenty of change over the last few months. First, Vancouver’s latest affordable date night spot, Ray’s, recently opened its doors. Additionally, Meet in Yaletown announced its closure, with the latest concept from the team behind Dovetail slated to take its place.
Now, another change has come to the neighbourhood with the quiet closure of Robba da Matti.
While the restaurant has yet to announce an official closure online, the windows of the store have since been papered up, and the patio has been taken down. Additionally, the location is listed as permanently closed on Google.
The group of Italian restaurants is best known for its authentic Italian eats and wine. Currently, it still operates outposts in the city in Gastown and the West End. In 2024, it closed its Kitsilano location.
