It's official: 2015 is going to go down in local culinary history as the Year of the Italian Restaurant. Two are opening next month in downtown Minneapolis: Monello launches June 1 in the Hotel Ivy, and Il Foro is coming in for a mid-June landing in the historic former Forum Cafeteria space.
In Uptown, Parella is aiming for a late June/early July debut in the former Figlio spot in Calhoun Square. And now, a block to the east, we will soon have Scena Tavern.
