A new Pan-Asian dining spot is on its way to Somerville, and it is going to be a reconcept of a recently closed restaurant.
According to its website, Cocolee is opening this spring at Assembly Row, with its sample menu showing such options as adobo pork skewers, wok-fried green beans, BBQ mushroom bao, snow mountain shrimp, confit duck wings, crab basil fried rice, Maui-style noodles, sea bass, and smoked ribeye, while cocktails will be offered as well. An earlier Boston Business Journal article mentions that it will open in the River Bar space and is a concept change, so it appears to be under the same ownership as that place.
The address for Cocolee is 661 Assembly Row, Somerville, MA, 02145. Its website can be found at https://www.cocolee-assembly.com/
[May 30 update: According to an Instagram post from the business, Cocolee is now open at Assembly Row, and it includes an outdoor area along with two bars.]
