In this column we report the month's new openings of restaurants and wine bars throughout Italy. These are not reviews, but previews of newly opened or opening establishments. An observatory on the ferment of the sector, including gastronomic novelties and new drinking addresses.
Here are June's new openings.
Despite the difficulties the restaurant industry continues to face, especially on the staffing front, the Italian scene remains vibrant, with numerous new openings ranging from gourmet restaurants to trattorias, from pizzerias to ethnic eateries.
The price range is also wide: ranging from more accessible proposals related to traditional cuisine and pizza to high-end restaurants, often placed in luxury hotel settings. The success of a restaurant depends on many factors: from the experience of the person who leads it to the quality of the cuisine and the professionalism of the chef; from the location to the wine list (an element, the latter, always central for us). Only the public will tell who has hit the mark.
To you the pleasure of discovering new addresses: article is updated regularly with openings we learn about.
