Restaurant bosses hoping to add a new floor at the former Zizzi in Royal Exchange Square have been turned down by council planners.
Viva Italia, which owns Tony Macaroni and Mozza, plans to offer another Italian restaurant in the building and took over after Zizzi failed to reopen following the pandemic.
But the firm's bid to create a new mezzanine floor in the A-listed ex-Royal Bank of Scotland building was rejected due to the “detrimental impact” on the historic property.
