If you've ever jostled for a table at Baccomatto Osteria​ you'll be surprised to hear the busy Surry Hills eatery is joining the growing posse of Sydney restaurants closing their doors.

It'll serve its last tonnarelli cacio e pepe on September 29. A popular haunt with barristers, politicians and artists, Baccomatto is owned by Michael Stevens and Mauro Marcucci​, one of the early crew at Melbourne's famed Caffe e Cucina.

Stevens says a DA has long hung over the Riley Street restaurant and they've recently been given notice by the landlord that development of the building is finally proceeding.

"We're committed to the area; I've already started looking at other sites to relocate," Stevens adds.
