Hello All,
After being on the market for 8 months or so we have finally sold! It was a good deal so we did not want to pass up the opportunity. We were made offers on 6 seperate occasions but nothing was good enough to make us want to give the restaurant ...till now. However, We are not going away! We will still be doing Drop off and full scale Catering. So please feel free to call me to set up any catering orders (small or large) and I will deliver to you for free! Thank you to everyone who supported us the last couple years-we really appreciate it. And dont forget GoodFellas Italian Catering for your next event!

Aw, man! Just last night, we were talking about going over there to try! My husband's 1/2 Italian and was intrigued by your story and menu. He's all about good Italian cooking!

Good luck to you! We'll miss it. My son LOVES your baked rigatoni. He's only three and he usually eats more than me!

We'll definitely call you if we ever need catering.

When will you be done there? I'll have to bring Jessica in for one last homemade mac-n-cheese before you guys are gone.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MY GIRL.
We could not be doing this without you.
Much love and gratitude.

Well, the restaurant is already closed but we have tons of catering lined up till the 31st which is our last day in the building. We are hoping to have a HUGE party on the 31st so I will keep you posted. In regards to the mac and cheese- I can make it for you anytime this or next week if you dont mind it To-Go! Call me...

You may see a Goodfellas sequel! But for the time being we plan to concentrate on the catering side of the biz. LOW OVERHEAD.

So, if you sold your restaurant, does that mean someone else is taking over? Or did you just sell your equipment? (I don't really know how business works, lol)

George,

Congrats to you and your family. You guys have always been great to this community through fundraisers, special events, and actually taking time to know and listen to the customer. I'm really glad the catering aspect of the business is strong and hope to see y'all back in the restaurant biz someday. Good luck and thanks again!!!

Stopped by on the way home to get some take-home. I was really saddened to see the posting on the door.

All the best in your future endeavors!
