An Indian restaurant in the western suburbs of Boston will be expanding to another space west of the city.
According to Kiat Cormier of ChewOnThis, who posted within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Virsa De Punjab is planning to open in Wellesley, moving into the former La Toscana's space on Central Street. Once it opens, the new location will join its other restaurant on Great Road in Wellesley and based on that location, the new place will focus at least in part on North Indian food.
La Toscana's first opened in the spring of 2022, initially focusing on pizza eventually morphing into an Italian restaurant with a full liquor bar before closing this spring.
The address for the upcoming location of Virsa De Punjab in Wellesley is 99 Central Street, Wellesley, MA, 02482.
