An Italian restaurant described as “Old World with modern amenities” is planned at the Mimi Blue location that closed in January. Named Rosemary and Olive, the restaurant is expected to open by May at 870 Massachusetts Ave., according to co-owner George Stergiopoulous.

Stergiopoulous, whose history of restaurant management includes Greek Islands Restaurant, 906 S. Meridian St., and Mama Fofo’s Greek Kitchen in the Garage Food Hall at Bottleworks District, said the ownership group includes Giorgio’s Pizza owner Elif Ozdemir and Ambrosia founder Gino Pizzi.
