"Reopening on Monday, February 10 under new management after previously being owned by Eric and Vanessa Carrara until spring 2024, this iteration brings back some beloved offerings from the original menu like mushroom cappelletti while adding new twists on classics, such as pork chops with kumquat preserves. Also returning is the restaurant’s membership program, which gives members early access to reservations and other exclusive programming." - Serena Maria Daniels
"A relaunch of Travail’s beloved south Minneapolis restaurant (formerly known simply as i.e., which closed in spring 2024) will reopen under Travail as an Italian concept; it is scheduled to open on Monday, February 10, and reservations are live on OpenTable." - Serena Maria Daniels
"I learned that i.e., one of the south Minneapolis sister restaurants owned by Eric and Vanessa Carrara, was closed earlier this summer and that the owners have officially listed the property for sale after initially seeking a new tenant; they said they want to pass the baton to an operator who’s right for the neighborhood rather than sell to a developer, and that the decision to close i.e. aligns with their growth plan as they refocus on their expanding Due Focacceria." - Justine Jones
"Spend a lovely candlelit evening over giant, shared plates of pasta at ie - Italian Eatery. A classy wine room with cork-covered walls is a sophisticated setting for groups of 25 to 30." - Tierney Plumb
"Italian Eatery offers basilicata barbecue sauce on fungi and veggie skewers, chicken thighs, prawn skewers, Calabrian salsa, and potato insalata. Dessert includes house made marshmallows, cacao bar, and graham crackers for s’mores. Order online, pickup Friday through Sunday." - Lauren Pahmeier
