Owners and sisters Marian and Hannah Cheng announced that Sept. 11 will be the last day at 179 Second Ave. between 11th and 12th streets, as the lease ends.
"This 12-year story was built by you, and we're endlessly grateful," they wrote on Instagram.
The closure doesn't mean the end of Mimi Cheng's. The sisters said they are shifting their focus to growing the company's frozen dumpling business, which is now sold in stores nationwide.
"The dumplings aren't going anywhere," they wrote. "They're just getting a bigger home."
The sisters opened the East Village location in July 2014 ... naming the business after their mother, Shirley, whose nickname was Mimi.
