All right, I'm devastated. I received a tip Tuesday night that a couple of folks on Facebook were posting they heard Mirko Pasta in Owensboro was going to close. And after I did some research and I made some phone calls, sadly, I found out it is true.

The unique Italian restaurant on Emory Drive opened in November, 2012 and according to Trip Advisor, it was the #1 rated restaurant in town and it received a 2014 "Certificate of Excellence" from the site. Other locations include one in Alabama, five in Georgia, and two in Tennessee.

The Owensboro location will close its doors this Saturday night.
