All Prezzo restaurants, including the one on Salisbury's High Street, are to close temporarily due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
The popular restaurant chain said its decision to shut comes as a result of the Government's advice to avoid restaurants.
Prezzo Executive Chairman Karen Jones said: "Today we will temporarily close our Prezzo restaurants during this COVID-19 crisis. We need to do this in order to protect the health of our teams, our customers and our local communities.
"After the Government stated last Monday that people should avoid restaurants, it was always going to be question of when, not if, we would need to close our doors for a time.
"Our Prezzo people will be working in their usual committed fashion to temporarily close our restaurants down in an orderly and planned manner.
"Those same Prezzo people are at the centre of my thinking and our planning. We appreciate the support of all stakeholders. I want us to return stronger than before and with renewed determination to deliver our mission – every customer leaving wanting to return. And return we will."
