A new restaurant may be on its way to a western suburb that is suddenly seeing a surge in new dining spots.
According to an article in the Needham Times and Wicked Local, Latina Kitchen and Bar is planning to open on Dedham Street in the former L&K Lounge and Kitchen space (which had originally been known as RFK Kitchen), with the upcoming place being an upscale spot that offers a mix of Latin American and Mediterranean fare. The post says that the restaurant will have seating for 100 (including 10 seats at a bar) and that it will be open for lunch and dinner six days a week, serving such items as empanadas, ceviche, grilled octopus, lobster tostones, and cachapas. If all goes well, Latina Kitchen and Bar could be opening in Needham in early August.
A few other new restaurants are planning to open in Needham as well, including Chef Mike's, Hungry Coyote, Pancho's Taqueria.
The address for the upcoming Latina Kitchen and Bar is 30 Dedham Avenue, Needham, MA, 02492.
