Comella's Is Opening in Marblehead

It looks like a local group of Italian food retailers and caterers is going to be opening its first shop on the North Shore.

The Marblehead Patch is reporting that Comella's is planning to open at the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Commercial Street in Marblehead, taking over the space where Moran Studios used to be. The new eatery will have seating for 12, though like the others, much of their business will probably come from takeout orders. Expect to see such items as ravioli, gnocchi, lasagna, stuffed shells, and chicken parmigiana at the upcoming spot.

[January 29, 2013 update: A new article in the Marblehead Patch says that Comella's is planning to open their new location by March. (Thanks to North Shore Dish for bringing this to our attention.)]

[May 2, 2013 update: An article from The Marblehead Patch several weeks back says that Comella's is now open in Marblehead. (It opened in late March.)]

Currently, all but one of Comella's shops are located in the western suburbs of Boston (with the other being in the West Roxbury neighborhood of the city), including in Arlington, Belmont, Chestnut Hill, Concord, Natick, Needham, Wellesley, and West Newton.

The address for this new dining spot in Marblehead is: Comella's, 50 Atlantic Avenue, Marblehead, MA, 01945. Their website can be found at: http://www.comellasrestaurants.com/
