A pair of Italian restaurant south of Boston will be opening a new location just a bit closer to the city, and it will be replacing a dining spot known in part for its modern American fare.
Wicked Local is reporting that the people behind La Familia in Taunton and Cumberland, RI, plan to open a third location of the restaurant in the space in Easton currently occupied by The Foundry An American Table and Bar. The article mentions that the transfer of licenses has been approved by the town and that the sale could be finalized in the next three to six weeks.
The Foundry first opened in 2014, taking over the space where Loco Tapas had once been; the owner of The Foundry also runs Maguire's Bar and Grill, an Irish pub that is located a short distance east of the restaurant.
The address for the new location of La Familia (and The Foundry) is 520 Foundry Street, South Easton, MA, 02375. The website for La Familia can be found at https://lafamiliarestaurants.com/
[August 20 update: Based on a Facebook post, it appears that The Foundry is now closed and that construction is taking place as La Familia gets ready to open.]
[September 11 update: A new Facebook post mentions that La Familia is now open in Easton.]
