Located at 5766 Emporium Square in north Columbus, the restaurant is not shutting down. Pasqualone stated that his goal is to find a successor who will take over the business through a seamless transition and preserve its established dining legacy.

The 1,875-square-foot establishment operates as an intimate, reservation-only venue that accommodates up to 60 guests. It does not provide takeout, delivery, or catering services. Pasqualone personally cooks every entrée to order, and the restaurant is already completely booked through Christmas.

The location originally debuted in 1993 as La Plaia Restaurant before Pasqualone purchased and rebranded it in 2005. Over the course of two decades, Dave and his wife, Lori Pasqualone, cultivated a dedicated customer base. The menu draws inspiration from Collecorvino, a town in central Italy where Pasqualone’s father, Otello Pasqualone, was born. Offerings include dishes such as spaghetti with marinara, tortellini with alfredo, chicken and veal selections, appetizers like escargot and mussels in white wine sauce, and desserts including cannoli and gelato.

According to the sale listing, Pasqualone plans to supply the restaurant’s proprietary recipes and offer extensive training and support for as long as necessary to ensure the transition maintains the eatery’s culinary standards.

Makhaayadda Pasqualone’s ee Columbus oo Suuqa la Geliyay $1.2 Milyan

Makhaayadda caanka ah ee cuntada Talyaaniga ee Pasqualone’s Ristorante, oo ku taal 5766 Emporium Square ee waqooyiga magaalada Columbus, Ohio, ayaa suuqa la geliyay iyadoo lagu qiimeeyay $1.2 milyan. Tallaabadan ayaa timid kadib markii uu mulkiilaha goobta, David Pasqualone, go’aansaday inuu shaqada ka fariisto oo uu howl-gab noqdo, isaga oo hadda raadinaya qofkii howshaas kala wareegi lahaa.

Pasqualone ayaa caddeeyay in makhaayaddu aysan xirmi doonin, balse qorshihiisu yahay in ganacsiga si nabadgelyo iyo hufnaan leh loogu wareejiyo mulkiile cusub oo sii wada taariikhda iyo sumcadda ay goobtu yeelatay mudada dheer.

Dhismaha makhaayadda oo bedkiisu yahay 1,875 cagood oo laba jibaaran (square feet) ayaa qaadi kara ilaa 60 qof markiiba. Goobtu waxay ku shaqeysaa nidaam ballan qabasho ah oo keliya (reservation-only), mana bixiso adeegyada cuntada dibadda loo qaato, adeegga guryaha lagu geeyo, ama adeegyo gaar ah oo xafladaha loogu talagalay toona. Cunto kasta oo la dalbado waxaa gacantiisa ku diyaariya David Pasqualone, waxaana la xaqiijiyay in ballamaha miisaska ee goobtu ay haddaba buuxsameen illaa iyo xilliga ciidda Christmas-ka.

Goobtan ganacsi ayaa markii ugu horreysay la furay sannadkii 1993 iyadoo markaas la oran jiray La Plaia Restaurant, waxaana dib uga iibsaday magaceedana u beddelay Pasqualone sannadkii 2005. Muddo ku dhow 20 sano, Dave Pasqualone iyo xaaskiisa Lori Pasqualone ayaa maamulayay makhaayadda, iyaga oo dhisay macaamiil badan oo si weyn ugu xiran.

Cuntooyinka makhaayadda lagu diyaariyo ayaa waxaa dhiirrigeliyay degaanka uu ku dhashay aabaha David, Otello Pasqualone, kaasoo ka soo jeeday magaalada Collecorvino ee bartamaha dalka Talyaaniga. Qoraalka iibka makhaayadda ayaa lagu xusay in David Pasqualone uu diyaar u yahay inuu la wadaago qofka cusub hab-cuntooyinka gaarka ah, isla markaana uu siiyo tababar iyo garab-istaag dhammaystiran inta loo baahdo si loo hubiyo in tayada cuntada iyo adeeggu aysan hoos u dhicin.
