"A massive — and massively popular — Italian restaurant in Hayes Valley will close on Saturday, March 30: Baia announced the shutdown on its website and Instagram without giving a reason, saying in part, “We cherish the memories created within these four walls with all of you and our incredible team members.” I remember it as a well-loved, luxe go-to—popular before seeing the opera or a show at Davies Symphony—and unlike some other recent closures, Baia will close its titanic space for good." - Paolo Bicchieri
