A brand new Italian restaurant may be on its way to East Boston.
According to an article from Universal Hub, El Burro has gotten approval by the Boston Licensing Board to open on Bennington Street, with owner Luis Santiago Lasprilla looking to open a trattoria that would feature authentic and "upper scale" Italian food while also offering takeout and having a patio with 14 seats. The post mentions that the board voted to approve its request for a beer and wine license, though the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission now has to give its approval as well before it can open.
The hearing page indicates that the address for El Burro would be 69 Bennington Street, East Boston, MA, 02128.
