A popular Dublin restaurant has shut with immediate effect.
The owners of Luna, on Drury Street, say the decision to close was tough but unavoidable.
In a statement, the restaurant said:
"Luna Restaurant will cease trading effective immediately.
This was a very tough decision to make but unavoidable, despite our best efforts."
"Luna had the very best staff, food and atmosphere. It was a restaurant to be proud of, which makes this all the harder."
"We’d like to thank our staff and customers for joining us on this journey. We wish it could have gone on longer."
