A Parasole Restaurant Holdings mainstay in Edina's 50th and France neighborhood shuttered its doors this weekend.

Mozza Mia, a wood-fired pizza restaurant at 3910 W. 50th St., served its last customers (closed effectively March 12) after six and a half years in business.

"We closed because the current operating environment doesn't favor restaurants and because Mozza Mia was losing money," the company said in a statement.

Parasole will honor gift certificates at its other restaurants, which include Manny's Steakhouse, Salut, Chino Latino, Libertine and Burger Jones, among others.
