Sally's Apizza to Open in Dorchester and Concord

[May 31 update: This article was updated to reflect the fact that a possible Burlington location is only being looked at and has not been confirmed.] 

An award-winning Connecticut pizzeria that recently expanded into the Greater Boston area and is currently working on another location will also be opening two more outlets locally.

The Tables section of The Boston Globe is reporting that Sally's Apizza is planning to open new outlets in Dorchester and Concord, while the website for Sally's mentions that Burlington is being considered as well, though we have been told that this is only a "target market" that they are "actively and/or interested in exploring but...not confirmed." It looks like the two new locations are slated to debut in 2025, with the Concord location opening on Route 2 where a location of Papa Razzi had been and the Dorchester location coming to South Bay. The new outlets of the pizzeria will be joining one in Woburn which opened last December while another is coming to Boston's Seaport District sometime in 2025. 

Sally's Apizza first opened in New Haven in 1938 and is one of a few pizzerias in that city--including Pepe's and Modern--that have gained national recognition for their pizza. The website for Sally's Apizza is at https://sallysapizza.com/

Bandoleros Is Opening in the Former Serafina Space in Concord

A brand new Mexican restaurant may be coming to the western suburbs of Boston, and it has a connection to a dining spot with the same name that is located a bit further to the west.

According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Bandoleros is planning to open in Concord, moving into the space on Sudbury Road that had once been home to Serafina. A Select Board agenda page within the town's website mentions that a meeting is slated to take place next week that will look into the proposal (including a full liquor license for the place), and the notice shows that Elmer Melendez--who is behind Bandoleros in Devens, based on an earlier hearing notice--is involved. We have reached out to Bandoleros to find out if this will be a second location or a move; as soon as we find out more, we will post an update here.

Serafina was an Italian restaurant that shut down in 2014.

The address for Bandoleros in Concord is 195 Sudbury Road, Concord, MA, 01742. The website for the Devens location is at https://www.mybandoleros.com/

[November 21 update: A message sent from the place confirms that this will be a second location of Bandoleros.]

Caffe Nero Is Opening in Concord

A rapidly-growing chain of European-style coffee places continues to expand into the Greater Boston area, with a new outlet now being planned for an historic town west of the city.

According to a post from Linear Retail, Caffe Nero is going to be opening in Concord Center, moving into a space within the historic Friend Block by the corner of Main Street and Walden Street. Once it opens, the new coffeehouse will join a number of locations in and around Boston, though there are currently only three others between Route 128 and Route 495, in Wellesley, Reading, and Andover.

If all goes as planned, Caffe Nero in Concord could debut sometime in the first quarter of 2018.

Fiorella's Taking Over Bondir Space in Concord

A few months ago, we reported that a well-known local chef had decided to put one of his restaurants up for sale. Now we have learned that the space will be taken over by the people behind a group of Italian spots.

According to a source, Bondir in Concord is planning to be replaced by a location of Fiorella's, with a message from Bondir owner (and former James Beard Award semi-finalist) Jason Bond confirming this. It is not yet known when Bondir will close or when Fiorella's may open, as the license transfer/permitting process will not begin until later this month, but if all goes as planned, Bondir may close sometime in May. (The Cambridge location of Bondir--which focuses mostly on New American fare--will remain open.)

Fiorella's has a location in Newton, with outlets of Fiorella's Express being found in Brighton, Cambridge, and Belmont; it appears that the proposed location of Fiorella's in Concord will be closer in concept to the Newton location, as it plans to be called "Fiorella's Concord" and the space is set up as a full-service restaurant.

The address for Bondir in Concord (and the new Fiorella's) is 24 Walden Street, Concord, MA, 01742. The website for Bondir can be found at http://www.bondirconcord.com/ while the website for Fiorella's is at http://www.fiorellasnewton.com/

[May 10 update: The Concord Journal is reporting that the planned liquor license transfer from Bondir to Fiorella's has been postponed after Police Chief Joseph O’Connor recommended that the transfer be denied, citing concerns about the background of the husband of listed owner Genevieve Karian. The article says that Remon Karian owns the other locations of Fiorella's, with Genevieve's lawyer Henry Dane saying that "The conclusion by police, which is based on no facts, is Remon Karian is the undisclosed co-owner (of Fiorella's Concord), and there are no documents to support that." The Concord Select Board is now expected to hold a public hearing on the license transfer on May 16.]

[May 18 update: A message sent to us indicates that plans are back on track for Fiorella's to take over the Bondir space in Concord, as the Concord Select Board approved of the license transfer earlier this week.]

[May 30 update: Bondir in Concord is now closed.]

[September 12 update: The Concord Journal mentions that the Massachusetts Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission has approved of a liquor license for Fiorella's.]

[November 29 update: Eater Boston mentions that Fiorella's is now open in Concord.]

Jason Bond worked at the Beacon Hill Bistro on Charles Street in Boston before opening both locations of Bondir; he has gained national recognition over the years and was once a James Beard Award semi-finalist, according to the James Beard site.

The address for Bondir in Concord is 24 Walden Street, Concord, MA, 01742. Its website can be found at http://www.bondirconcord.com/

Owners of Trail’s End Cafe in Concord to Take Over AKA Bistro, Whistle Stop Cafe Spaces in Lincoln

The people behind a comfort food spot in the western suburbs of Boston are going to be opening two restaurants in a neighboring town that currently has very few options for dining.

According to an article in The Lincoln Squirrel, Jim and Carol White and their daughter Elizabeth Akehurst-Moore of the Trail's End Cafe in Concord have signed leases for the spaces in the Lincoln Station complex where AKA Bistro and the Whistle Stop Cafe had been, with the former becoming a high-end comfort food place called Lincoln Kitchen and the latter becoming a second location of the Trail's End Cafe. If all goes as planned, the new location of Trail's End Cafe could open by the end of this month and Lincoln Kitchen may open later this fall.

For awhile, it looked like a new restaurant called Blazes might go into the AKA Bistro space, but plans for that apparently fell through and the owner of that proposed spot may be looking elsewhere now, according to the article.

The address for both upcoming restaurants is 145 Lincoln Road, Lincoln, MA, 01773.

Thanks to @mrovelli for bringing this to our attention.

[December 28 update: According to its website, the Trail's End Cafe is now open in Lincoln, and a job post within the bostonchefs.com site indicates that Lincoln Kitchen is now hiring and plans to open in early 2017.]

Update: La Provence in Concord Is Closing; New Restaurant May Move In

[Ed note: This article was updated on August 15 to reflect the fact that a new dining spot may move into the space.]

A French bakery and cafe that has been around for nearly two decades is shutting down.

The Concord Journal is reporting that La Provence in Concord closes its doors for good today, as owner Robert Didier is dealing with health issues that are forcing him to retire from the business. The article says that Didier will go to France for a few weeks once he closes the Thoreau Street restaurant, then he will return home to spend some "quality time" with his wife, which he is looking forward to after many years of long hours spent at the restaurant.

Didier, who was born in France, first opened La Provence 18 years ago; the dining spot featured baked goods, pastries, sandwiches, meals such as coq au vin, and more.

The address for La Provence is 105 Thoreau Street, Concord, MA, 01742.

[August 15 update: It appears that the person behind Karma Restaurant in Andover and Westford is going to be opening a high-end sushi fusion spot in the space where La Provence had been, though it is not yet known whether it will be another location of Karma. (This information was sent to us by Corbett Restaurant Group, who sold the property and were also behind the sales of Andiamo in Chelmsford and The Tilted Kilt in Billerica.)]
