SoCal Closure Watch — Week of 11/8

Vino e Cucina — East Long Beach

An Italian restaurant in East Long Beach has announced it will close permanently on November 22, 2026. Owner Lorenzo Mottola shared the news in a farewell message to customers, citing economic conditions that are no longer sustainable for the business. He has run the restaurant since 2017.

A neighborhood Italian spot of this kind may have commercial kitchen equipment, wine inventory, bar equipment, and dining furniture to dispose of as it winds down.
