Gennaro & Son in Quincy Is Closing

A longtime Italian restaurant south of Boston is going to be shutting down.

According to a source, Gennaro & Son in Quincy is closing its doors this weekend, with a Facebook post from the Blanchard Road dining spot saying the following:

In December of 1994, we opened our doors as Gennaro's Eatery. Many years later, we changed our name to Gennaro & Son — because our son Anthony was already putting in more hours than the two of us combined, and we wanted his name on the door, right alongside ours. Since then, we've built something we never could have imagined. A life time of cherished /memories. Friendships that have lasted decades. Regulars who feel like family....After many years of hard work, we've decided it's time for Gerry to take the break he's earned, so he can focus on his health and well-being. So we've made the difficult decision to close Gennaro & Son. We will be open our normal hours from Tuesday, August 4th through Saturday, August 8th....From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for 31+ years of friendship, trust, and love. We will cherish every one of you always. With all our love, Gerry, Jane & Anthony

Gennaro & Son is known in part for such options as toasted ravioli, antipasto, chicken marsala, stuffed peppers, eggplant parmigiana, bolognese, shrimp scampi, and pizza, while also featuring a wide variety of desserts.

The address for Gennaro & Son is 12 Blanchard Road, Quincy, MA, 02169. Its website can be found at https://gennaroseatery.com/

You've filled these walls with life and helped make this place feel like home....But this isn't goodbye. You'll still see me around Cottage Ave at Kilroy's! Come say hi, grab a cocktail, a French toast cupcake, or maybe even a coffee (stay tuned on that one!). Before we officially say farewell at the end of December, come in for one last meal, one more laugh, one more broccoli Caesar! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for everything!

Drifters Kitchen and Bar Is Replacing Idle Hour in Quincy

A new dining and drinking spot is on its way to Quincy, replacing another restaurant that has been in operation for six years--and the new place will feature a unique twist on a regional style of pizza.

According to a source (Casey Doyle), Drifters Kitchen and Bar is planning to open in the city's downtown area, taking over the space where Idle Hour has been since the summer of 2018. An article from the Patriot Ledger says that the upcoming spot will feature classic American fare while a raw bar will likely be offered as well, and its "flagship" will be bar pizza, but instead of being the traditional round 10-inch pizzas known throughout the South Shore, they will be 12-inch pizzas with a thinner crust and cut into squares. 

Will Falaro of the Broadway Restaurant Group in South Boston is the owner of Drifters Kitchen and Bar, working with business partners Andrew Moccia (also from the Broadway Restaurant Group) and Nick Palermo, Michael Johnson, and Evan Harrington of the Liberty Tavern in Quincy.

The address for Drifters Kitchen and Bar (and Idle Hour) is 1464 Hancock Street, Quincy, MA, 02169. Its Instagram page is at https://www.instagram.com/driftersquincy/

[February 13, 2025 update: According to an Instagram post from the place, Drifters opens today.]

The Wheelhouse Diner in North Quincy Is Closing

A diner just south of Boston that has been around since the 1940s is closing its doors. 

According to multiple sources, the Wheelhouse Diner in North Quincy is shutting down, with the news coming on the heels of a dispute between restaurant owner LeeAnn Vieira McDonough and the new landlord of the property; McDonough says the following in a Facebook post:

So today was our last court date. I know many people wanted me to fight to stay here as long as possible and I understand this place means a lot to a great number of people. However, I have decided to close June 30th. The reality of the situation is the longer I fight this the further down the road I am pushing off the inevitable. In the meantime, the condition of the building being 80 years old is deteriorating....It is a money pit that I didn't mind spending money on when I was in it for the long haul. However, any additional money spent is now debt that I will never recover.

McDonough does hint in the note that she is looking to open a restaurant in a new location, though it isn't known if it would be another version of the Wheelhouse Diner (in the post, she states that "I do plan on moving on. You will see me again in a new location").

An article in the Patriot Ledger mentions that Ciahua Chen, who is principal of Hancock Realty Trust LLC, bought the property early last year and has been attempting to evict McDonough since last October with the pans being to put up a multistory structure with a diner on the ground floor, based on information from Helen Shiner of Shiner Group Realtors in Quincy. (Construction wouldn't start for three to five years.)

The address for the Wheelhouse Diner in North Quincy is 453 Hancock street, Quincy, MA, 02171. Its website is at https://www.wheelhousediner.com/
