Greek restaurant M.I.M by 1821 in Sydney’s CBD to close

·

Trendy Greek restaurant M.I.M by 1821 on Pitt Street in Sydney’s CBD will close its doors for good after three years.

M.I.M by 1821 first opened in July 2021 at the former site of Jamie’s Italian restaurant.

The Greek Herald understands the building where M.I.M. by 1821 is located will be demolished as part of a new major development linking into nearby George Street. 

Managing Director at Universal Hotels Jim Kospetas told The Greek Herald “this is not goodbye, but see you soon.”

“1821 was a passion project that was very close to my heart. My love for my Greek heritage and upbringing has always been a great inspiration behind our hospitality venues,” Mr Kospetas said.

“I am very proud of what we have achieved over the last eight years and looking forward to delivering premium Mediterranean infused offerings across our many venues.”

Universal Hotels has been operating in Sydney since 1998 and operates eight successful venues located in Sydney CBD and Darlinghurst.  

Mr Kospetas said the group will be launching a casual Greek concept at Tempe Hotel next year, whilst also focusing on Sydney’s Inner West where they recently bought The Riverview Hotel.

The last day of trade at M.I.M by 1821 will be November 20.
