Located at 2389 Wilton Drive in Wilton Manors, the space that formerly housed Thai Me Up will soon be home to a new restaurant: Salvo Osteria Romana. “We’re doing a lot of work finishing up construction,” owner Salvo Mule told What Now in a phone conversation on Tuesday. Asked if he knew a precise date for opening, Mule said, with a smile in his voice, “Knowing that would be like winning the lottery.
” Still, as construction nears completion, it should be expected soon. Once it’s open, Mule says, you’ll be able to enjoy a wide range of Italian favorites. The majority of dishes will be drawn from the cuisine of Rome, like the famous Cacio e Pepe (and lots of others), but this crowd-pleasing menu will most likely still have your favorite non-Roman Italian dish.
There will be Sicilian-born eggplant parm, American-born chicken parm, and—perhaps most excitingly—pasta prepared at your table inside a wheel of parmigiano. You can keep up with the opening by following Salvo Osteria Romana on Facebook ..
