Is Don Mimi in Monkstown closed?

Like a lot of people I bought a city deal voucher for the 2 pizzas, salad and bottle of wine. Over the last month I've called in (about 7pm) but it's locked up. There is still stock in the fridge. I've also phoned with no answer and i've bumped into people outside with the same problem. The menu pages reviews didn't come across well for the city deal customers.

Does anyone know if they have closed?

I haven't used mine yet for Don Mimi's but it sounds as if it has closed down.

I nearly bought a voucher for "cafe des irlandais" when it was advertised on citydeal however this morning I read that it has closed down and anyone who still had a voucher could use it at The Harbourmaster by the IFSC.

Sounds like these businesses are using citydeal to boost their cash flow in the short term but still cant sustain themselves in the medium-long run and go out of business. City Deal would want to re-evaluate their partnerships because if people keep buying vouchers for businesses that are about to close down there will be some very angry city deal customers and very bad PR.

Lets hop we can use our Don Mimi vouchers elsewhere, but sadly I was looking forward to a nice pizza and bottle of wine

There is a Don Mimi on the north strand but the contact number is the one for Monkstown so i'm not sure if they are still trading?
My guess they take their cut of city deal (50%) Close the door and concentrate on the north strand shop until vouchers expire. I would say they bit of more than they can chew.
