When Is Totonno's Opening? New Projected Date Is Late August

Posted by Adam Kuban, July 22, 2009 at 2:10 PM

A number of you have been emailing and tweeting us (@slice), asking if we had any word on when Totonno's in Coney would be open again. (Last we heard, it was mid July.)

Well, I just got off the phone with Totonno's owner Lawrence Cimineri, and he says we're looking at late August now. While rebuilding, they found some structural issues unrelated to the fire that they wanted to take care of while they already had the patient opened up, so to speak. "It's a very old building, you know how it is," Cimineri said.

So there you go, folks. Anything else?

the update i've been waiting for! good luck to them on reopening. as an architect, my experience is that it almost always takes longer than expected to open a place or to renovate - there are often hidden surprises and delays.
