A new restaurant is possibly on its way to Jamaica Plain, and the person who is behind it had previously been involved with a pizza spot not too far away.
According to an article in the Jamaica Plain News, Mario's is opening in Hyde Square, with a Facebook post saying that it would be moving into the space on Perkins Street that had been home to Pizza Oggi. The article mentions that Mario Bailote--who was one of the people behind the now-closed Mario's Pizzeria on Humboldt Avenue in Roxbury--is opening the place. Very little information on the upcoming restaurant has been given, so stay tuned for updates.
The address for the upcoming Mario's in Jamaica Plain is 8 Perkins Street, Jamaica Plain, MA, 02130.
