In late November, Amarone Ristorante and Bar will be opening in the location currently occupied by Sip Restaurant and Wine Bar. The Nardone family will bring their Italian heritage to the space, located at 1084 NE Park Drive.

Giovanni Nardone was born on a family vineyard in Italy and held a passion for winemaking from a young age. Amarone Ristorante guests will have the opportunity to try an extensive wine selection, including Nardone wines.

Nardone’s passion is being pursued alongside his wife, Michelina, who are both professionally trained chefs. Longtime family friend, Tony La Stella, will also perform Italian classics on his guitar for customers.
