Posto to Move from Somerville's Davis Square to Assembly Row

A restaurant in Somerville that is known in part for its pizza is moving to another section of the city.

According to a press release, Posto in Davis Square is planning to move to Assembly Row, with the new space including a full-service dining area along with a takeout market/cafe, and the place will continue to offer wood-fired pizza along with such options as steak, seafood, and house-made pasta.

Posto first opened on Elm Street in 2009; owner Joe Cassinelli and his Alpine Restaurant Group currently run the Painted Burro in Somerville, Cambridge, Brookline, and Waltham, and Burro Bar in Boston's South End.

The website for Posto can be found at https://www.postoboston.com/

[June 14 update: According to a source, Posto will be moving into the Assembly Row space where Frank had been, with a licensing commission page seeming to confirm this, giving the address as 400 Assembly Row, 502.]

[November 15 update: An Instagram post from the place indicates that Posto will close its Davis Square location at the end of business hours on November 17 as it gets ready for the move to Assembly Row, with that location possibly opening in the next few weeks.]
