Ravi's Pasta and Pizzeria to Open in Malden

A new Italian restaurant and bar will soon be opening in Malden, replacing a neighborhood Italian dining spot and watering hole that had been around for several decades before closing late last year. According to a job posting on The Job Spider, Ravi's Pasta and Pizzeria will be opening on Highland Avenue just east of the Medford border, in the spot where the Highland Cafe used to be. The Highland Cafe was a classic old-school dining spot and bar that featured pizza and inexpensive Italian-American fare for many years, but economic issues caused the restaurant to close last winter. Ravi's also looks to feature pizza and Italian food, and based on both the job posting and Chowhound posters, the inside of the place will have a fresh look to it.

There seems to be no set date on when Ravi's is opening, but a poster on Chowhound did say that a sign was up out front, so the restaurant may be opening fairly soon. [November 20, 25 updates: According to the restaurant's Facebook page, Ravi's Pasta and Pizzeria is now open. And they will begin to serve alcohol on Wednesday, November 25.]

The address for this upcoming Italian restaurant in Malden is: Ravi's Pasta and Pizzeria, 156 Highland Avenue, Malden, MA, 02148.
